Default non oe clutches, what do people recommend?

Need a new clutch for my 1.6 focus, nothing special. I've noticed LUK clutch kits at a good saving over the genuine ford items and have a 3 year guarantee. Are these any good?

LUK clutches are spot on. If you bought a genuine Ford one no doubt it is made buy LUK.

I know genuine Peugeot clutches are LUK.

I’ve got a rather tasty ttv fly and helix clutch for an St220 should you be in the market but yes there is nothing wrong with Luk as a standard replacement, they are Oem suppliers to many brands.

LUK, Borg and Beck, Valeo or Sachs

Any of them I would be happy to fit in a standard road car.
