Well at least you got 500 miles. Mine chattered from day one and only got (way) worse... My pressure plate looked much worse than yours too. It's kind of a cost/benefit gamble on whether to re-use that PP. It doesn't look that bad, but it was used with a disk that was chattering, so probably not ideal. Kind of comes down to whether it's worth risking the possibility of doing it all over again vs the cost of just buying a new one now. How likely is this one to cause problems? That's a question that probably can't be answered (especially over the internet) but the answer isn't zero. Personally, I'm too lazy to take the risk or re-doing, so I'd probably buy a new one regardless of its history -- but admit I tend to go overboard in that regard. How's that for a wishy-washy answer?choochbamboozle wrote: Tue Dec 09, 2025 1:35 am Just looking for a little advice. Last year I put this Spec stage 2 clutch kevlar package on my 944T. The first 500 miles of break-in went just fine. Clutch was silky smooth. At 800 miles I started getting shudder which only got worse with more miles and drove me nuts. I pulled the clutch last weekend and I do see some issues. (See pics). Flywheel might have been out of spec. I do see some grease on the clutch center. I might have overdone it lubing the Tork tube shaft and it migrated to the kevlar. I was wondering if the minor pressure plate discoloration should be a worry since I'd like to re-use it and go with a Turbo Cup Disc and new flywheel. About 1,200 miles on the whole setup. Thanks.

p.s., you have to be very careful with grease -- basically wipe if off and leave a residue so that it can't spin out and get on the friction pads...
