Well with hot spots such as those shown if one were to reuse, it would be best to grind it. Hot spots are pretty hard, a cutting bit would have a hard time cutting threw a hot (harden) spot. A good fly wheel resurfacer can tell you if it is even recommended to try to reuse it at all.

Please note not many machine shops can grind a Dual mass flywheel please asked.


If I saw hot spots such as these on a brake rotor I would toss it.


If you are the type that believes brake rotors can or should be resurfaced for new brake pads you should consider resurfacing a flywheel when a new clutch is installed.

A flywheel with a bad surface can make it hard to launch a car smoothly in stop and go traffic.
