RE: [1302 eGroup] The new clutch disk

Thanks, Mike. I will check it. The original cable remains on the decklid. Will look by an avometer for the polarity. One of them is chasis ground, the other is +12V I guess.

I would drive it for a day or two to see if it goes away – it could be dust burning off – but if it remains I would check cable adjustment and the curve of the final 30cm of clutch cable outer casing.  Check in the manual bout how much the cable should curve – as this does affect how the clutch closes
 
Rear license plate?  On the engine deck lid?  Any cable will do as the bulb takes very little current.  I would just take one from a scrapped car.

Subject: [1302 eGroup] The new clutch disk
 
Hi. Last week, I've got the clutch disc replaced with a new Sachs on my 71' super. Then the rear CV joints are lubricated as a 50000km maintainence for the first time :) (original 57500km). The car did not move for days. Today I discovered that it makes a burn flavour when I hit the clutch pedal. It disappears on the road, reappears while parking. Is it normal due to the material that is used on the new clutch disc?

Also, does anyone know which cable is +12V for the license plate light? Thanks for reading.

Yup - one is 12v and the other ground (Brown), they have two cables because VW did not know if the hinges would act as a good circuit, so the brown wire...
