My suspicion is that the clutch alignment tool was not used or did not succeed in aligning the friction disk with the pilot bearing.

Also, I made the mistake of assembling my clutch with the forks against the BACK of the TOB. I think you are aware of this big mistake, but just in case, thos windows in your bell housing are there so you can make sure the forks are engaged into the wide groove at the OUTER EDGE of the TOB. You see, the forks pull on the TOB, they do not push on it like "normal" cars.

Thos crazy Germans. On my Rabbit, the PP was bolted to the crankshaft and the flywheel was bolted to the PP. Go figure.
