Default Machining flywheels @ ASG

Quick Q for anyone who knows, when a car is taken in to ASG for a clutch change (left for the day) - is the flywheel taken from the car, machined & put back or is a pre-machined flywheel put back in the car while your flywheel is sent off to be machined & installed on another car down the track?

I've heard of workshops doing this before because it takes time to machine & not all workshops can do it on site. Not ragging on ASG but it would explain alot with my driveline issues at the moment if that's the case. I am thinking they may have put a lightened flywheel back in or this other flywheel might not have been machine or had a problem before. Either way it will be going back to them to either replace faulty clutch or replace flywheel/machine properly.

I'm getting loud mechanical rubbing noises rolling on 0% throttle in gear, louder downhill, coasting with the slightest throttle & I can feel the car grabbing & releasing in the driveline, squeal from gearbox when taking off from dead stop & rolling around carpark in 1st & just lately developed the same squeal while stationery in gear & idling.

Previously read about Exeedy's new clutches having one thick spring instead of 2 thinner ones which contributes to the first noise above, but as far as I can see the rest of the noises points to the flywheel. Clutch is no more than 2 thous Kms old.
