This part cross-references Sachs NFW9122 for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Clutch chatter caused by an uneven flywheel surface
• Judder or vibration during clutch engagement
• Poor clutch contact after wear on the original flywheel
• Service delays when resurfacing is not the preferred option
• Noise or drivability issues related to flywheel wear

Installation Notes and Tips

Inspect the clutch assembly, pilot components, and related hardware before installation. Confirm flywheel diameter, tooth count, and step height match the original application before assembly. For best results, replace the flywheel during clutch service so the new clutch disc mates to a clean, flat friction surface.
