Standard clutch?
Uprated?
Lightened flywheel & uprated?
:)
Not a dual mass in the R is it?

You already have the clutch that everybody uprates too, which can handle about 400bhp, think thats the figure that is put about.

I have had my flywheel lighten just a bit, nothing silly.

As far as I know, no 850 had A DMF

Cheers bud :)
Was looking at the lightend flywheels on ebay for about £260, Plus a new clutch.
May as well do the crank seal too whilst thats all off.

My 850 AWD has a DMF, but then it also has the M4.4 ecu and was one of the last 850s made

Don at Kalmar offers the Billet flywheels for around another £100 on that price IIRC and that would be a better item to get over a lightened ebay one.

Bloody hell, It's mounting up :D
Might just stick with the clutch for now actually.
No more overtime at work for the foreseeable future, So spending loads might come back around and bite me on the cheeks.

Okay, It's stopped slipping.
Other day it was slipping in 3rd, Now not in any gear.
Could it be an issue with the slave cylinder?
Don't want to spend out the best part of £500 if I don't need to.
