[GaryC2.5td]

Hi
Could someone please help !
I got my 1996 2.5td omega chiped but due to the amount of torque  the clutch is slipping. the clutch is not gone

i need to get a ceramic paddle clutch or if any one else knows of a different type of clutch that would be suitable.

what gear box is in my 2.5td and what other omega has the same clutch/gear box? 

Thanks

I don't recall anyone else having clutch problems on a chipped TD, so would suggest that yours is probably just worn and a decent quality replacement would probably be fine. I'm no expert on the TD, though.

its not actually a standard chip i messed around with the injector pump it would be running at much higher torque than any remapping ive seen. the person who did it for me has a 2.5tds bmw drifting which has the same engine and is up at 250bhp he had to put in a paddle clutch as the standard wouldnt grip. but mine is around the 200 mark and i need a paddle clutch. my clutch inst that old and is definitely not gone

yup high torque is a clutch killer as i found out,however first off a 3 litre clutch plate fits perfectly and is bigger it eventually became td standard fit  take it you have the larger one in there? if yes then you can get organic clutches which are 30percent uprated from standard,but i no longer have the part number since i uprgraded to windows 7 and my favourites didnt carry over pretty sure a search for bmw uprated clutches would sort you though as its bmw engine and box,
let us know how you got on!
