I'm feeling a bit of play when accelerating/decelerating and letting off the clutch. I know my clutch is buggered, but there is a good chance my flywheel is knackered.

My question is: Is the Volvo 850 T5 (1995) Flywheel a "Dual Mass Flywheel" i:e does it have the rubber backing on it?

Plus if the flywheel is knackered how much am I looking at to replace it? can I get a goodsecond hand one anywhere?

Looking forward to your responses

Salvo group can supply with with one......all though I couldn't guess a price..
You'll probably find the new bolts you've got to get from volvo cost more...
Why do you think the flywheel may have had it......?

You don't get play in the flywheel unless its blown the bolts or/has come loose, could be crankshaft endfloat if you can feel it through the clutch or engine/transmission mounts mate.
