Spec 08-10 Audi 2.0T Stage 2 Clutch Kit
The SPEC SA782-2 is a Stage 2 single-disc clutch kit for the manual-transmission Audi 2.0T in the B8 platform: the A4 2.0T quattro and the A5 2.0T. Owners usually shop for it after a tune pushes torque past what the factory clutch holds, when the clutch slips in fourth through sixth gear on boost, or when the original clutch is worn out and they want more margin for the next one. SPEC lists its torque capacity at 355 ft-lb.
The turbocharged 2.0T makes its torque low in the rev range, and a tune raises it further, so the clutch is asked to clamp hard from just off idle. A Stage 2 kit replaces the pressure plate and friction disc with a higher-capacity combination so the engine's torque reaches the quattro drivetrain without slipping. SPEC builds this application in several steps, and they show where Stage 2 sits: Stage 1 SA781-2 at 315 ft-lb, Stage 2 SA782-2 at 355 ft-lb, Stage 2 Plus SA783H-2 at 405 ft-lb and Stage 3 Plus SA783F-2 at 495 ft-lb. Stage 2 fits a car with a moderate tune that is still driven every day.
Do a high-gear slip test: in fourth at low rpm, go to full throttle and watch whether rpm rises faster than road speed. Check for fluid at the slave cylinder and bleed the hydraulics before condemning the clutch, and look for oil on the bellhousing from an engine seal. Our slipping diagnosis guide covers the process, and the manual vs automatic repair cost guide shows what a clutch job on a quattro car usually runs.
Our listing is labeled for 2008-2010 Audi 2.0T. SPEC's own catalog lists SA782-2 for the Audi A4 2.0T quattro (2009-2017) and Audi A5 2.0T (2008-2017), so the kit is shared across those B8 model years. It is for the 2.0T with a manual gearbox only. It does not fit the S-tronic or Multitronic cars, the transverse A3 or TT 2.0T, or the 3.0T S4 and S5. A 2008 A4 is usually the earlier B7 body, which uses different clutches. Confirm your model, engine and transmission, or send us the year and VIN and we will check it before it ships.
SPEC also catalogs a matching steel flywheel for the same cars (SA78S-2), sold separately. Plan ahead about whether you are keeping your current flywheel or converting, and have it inspected or surfaced as required.

SPEC rates the SA782-2 Stage 2 kit at 355 ft-lb. For more, SPEC offers Stage 2 Plus SA783H-2 at 405 ft-lb and Stage 3 Plus SA783F-2 at 495 ft-lb for the same cars.
The listing is a clutch kit. SPEC catalogs a separate steel flywheel, SA78S-2, for the same A4 and A5 2.0T applications.
No. The A3 and TT use a transverse engine layout with different clutch parts. This kit is for the longitudinal B8 A4 and A5 2.0T.
Yes. Bleed the hydraulic clutch system after the gearbox goes back in, and check the slave cylinder for leaks while it is apart.
Stage 2 is a step above stock built for tuned street cars. Expect a firmer pedal than the factory clutch; break it in with normal driving before using full boost.
