New clutch

[T5Tom]

Hi could anyone recommend I good clutch kit for my 1996 850 t5 cd? I don't think its the plates that are worn because it doesnt slip but maybe some other internal workings as it screetches when I set off in first then again in second but not the higher gears.

Thanks

are they a duel mass clutch? and what sort of price are they bud?

Just done mine but I had a spare flywheel, lucky as it was shot, around £250 300 for the kit

Did you stick an 850r clutch on a t5? How many spanners would that be in the haynes manual? lol

Where is best to get the kit from?

[dalhousie2008]

It's a 4 spanner job. I do alot myself but not lying under car changing clutch, may want to change box mounts and rear oil seal at same time

'95 850's don't have dual mass flywheels, so, I'm pretty sure a '96 won't have either.

I got my R clutch from the main dealers, wasn't much more than a factors wanted.

I phoned volvo in bury the other day as i was unsure what type of flywheel i have in the 96 T5 engine and he said its just the normal clutch smf

[T5Tom]

So the T5R clutch is a direct fit onto a T5? or is it the same thing?

Sorry for all of the questions i just dont want to buy the wrong one

Cheers guys

The 850 r clutch is supposed to be a stronger clutch and yes they fit
