Clutch slipping :(

[willhawk at shaw.ca (W.Hawker)]

On the subject of SMS...is there a repair or kit  that can be purchased 
to retrofit the tranny before it actually happens. I have one of these 
suspect transmissions (out of my old 83 Rabbit GTi) and would like to 
use it on the Scirocco. I would hate to drop it in and then find a 
puddle of gear oil in a couple of months. better to fix it BEFORE 
something happens.
