Default Re: 2008 owner recent clutch issues

I have not done mine yet, 157k miles.
There are some threads of what clutches they used.
Do you have the tools and capability to do it yourself or have to have a shop do it?
Did dealer price include the dual mass flywheel?
I have to looked for sure but have heard several times that the dual mass flywheel has to be changed also when clutch is changed.
Be nice if there is a normal flywheel that would work.
Heard ours is 80 - 90 lbs, which is the reason the wheel hp is the same between autos and manual, normally auto has 25% - 35% hp reduction to wheels and manual is 15% - 25% due to rotational weight.
I wonder if the flywheel and clutch from the penstar v6 is the same bolt pattern, the trans bellhousing will bolt up.
