Do take care from whom you get it installed, as this is a job for which one needs to be very much experienced.
Thats what I was thinking about.

PHC is a collaboration of Valeo only. In Patel Nagar, its available for Rs.1260. The Ceekay one is available for Rs.1950 approx.

If you ask for Valeo Clutch, they give you PHC only. However its the Blue box. I am wondering whats the difference in the Green Box, Valeo marked clutch.

I have got the Ceekay Clutch installed. Total cost Rs.2900.

Clutch Assembly = Rs. 1950
Bearing = Rs.450
Labour = Rs.500

Shashank, I'm very sorry for not posting the prices before. It completely skipped my mind.

What you paid for the Clutch Assembly is almost the same, considering the quote I got.

Where did you get this done from?

I know this. Fortunately I do not live in South Delhi, being a resident of Patel Nagar, Karol Bagh is like a next door neighbor for us. So the rates of parts in Patel Nagar as well are quite decent.

Got it done from our family 'mechanic' , in Patel Nagar only.

just to let you, the car reached 95 kmph in 2nd gear, and there was still some power left. Is it good enough ?

May be off topic but how are these compared to Exedy clutch. I have seen many modified cars using this. Is Exedy meant only for modified cars? I have asked similar question in the Swift modification thread but no answer!

Wise choice. Ceekay is the way to go!

@adi99-> IMHO, every petrol swift needs an upgraded clutch. Exedy Stage1 fits the bill perfectly.

Thank you, ScarySkulls! So Exedy stage1 will be much better than ceekay and valeo. Correct? How much does it cost in Bangalore, any idea?

ceekay or valeo clutch for baleno?

I recently brought my baleno, have given it for servicing. Today I got a call saying that there is a clutch slippage & it is better to change the clutch.

So I am wondering which brand would be better for the baleno, the ceekay or valeo?

MASS recommends valeo, they say it is lighter on the foot. On the other hand ceekay's are hard and tend to last longer.


Other mods:
Pipercross air filter
Quartz semi-synthetic fluid

To be done next week:
Change of tyres to continental (195/60/R-14)
Lenso Samurai series or stamford wheels:

I have bad experience with valeo twice ( its soft but gives up in heavy ghat traffic) so recommend ceekay ( my friend uses it, clutch is harder than mine)

Bump !
I wanted to go in for either Asco or Daikin for my G13B Esteem but since neither of them were available, had to settle down for Ceekay or Valeo. Got a call from the mechanic that he managed to get Valeo. Not sure how its going to turn out. Keeping my fingers crossed.

P.S: Any sources where one can get Daikin or Asco for the Esteem ?

70% of UK cars run on valeo clutch. Valeo is a trusted brand in other countries like Australia too. I had used it in my Rover MkII.

It depends on how long you have run your car on your current clutch ?
How is the clutch feel / slippage etc ?

Once you open up to change the clutch bearing see what is the condition of clutch , pressure plate , flywheel too and then you can make a informed decision whether to change or not .

You can just change the clutch bearing too .
