That would be to run a dual mass? Although I think you can run a single with internal slave as well.

Internal slave is a nice light clutch pedal as well

the mounts for external slave are already there iirc so nothing much, might have to tap them.

although you may have to make a hole for the clutch fork, but that's already marked out in the casting...

I `ll be heading up the M3 then along the M25 to Gillingham on Saturday morning :)

I'll try reasoning with the boss but don't hold your breath lol.

Shame, it would be good to say hi and poke around your car :)

I'm heading your way this weekend but I'm not allowed out to play:(

It's not a hard job, just awkward from what I can make out.

you have pm phil

Doubt it's a long job, hour or two, I'd do the aux belt but if the cam belt isn't due, I'd leave it well alone ;)

JamesT5 did a guide to changing it on a P2. can't see it being a massive difference to an 850.
Good luck, i gave up on my P1 and it ended up getting a garage to do it.

£500 seems a bit steep for...

When i spoke to marshals volvo in notts they quoted me 196 inc the vat for a 850R clutch for mine which i didnt think was to bad aftermarket think i got a price of around 100 quid upwards

I have a brand new 850r clutch and rms that I'm wanting rid of mate. I bought for mine but had a change of plans now. Drop me a pm if your interested.

Lol, I know what you mean, I was so dreading doing mine that in the end I paid the local indy to do it for me. Getting a bit to decrepid to be faffing around with clutches these days.

I'd go with Rufe bud, that's where I ordered mine from, gave me a damn good price.. though as it was a good few years ago I'll be §§§§§§ed if I can remember exactly how much,lol.

Yeah the 850R clutch is the one to go for, that's what I fitted to my T5-R when I had to do the RMS, thought I may as well swap the clutch out while the gearbox was coming off.

As many have said above its probable something is probably interfering with the sensors and its most likely is would be the wheel thats locking (if you can tell) Ive had a greasy ring before also on...

my xc did this was greasy rings (no pun intended) had split cv gaiter grease everywhere clean them up and sound as a pound since :)

All i did was take the front wheels off remove the abs sensor clean the sensor as rust will be stuck to them and then i used a thin screw driver through the sensor hole or you can remove the discs...

I've had the rings crack on mine before and 'freewheel' on the c/v joint causing all sorts of speed related oddness, also had a c/v boot clip break and slide over the reluctor ring again causing...
