I can't believe the price of a P2 clutch / Flywheel

Just been on the Kalmar Union website, websites like that should be banned for being as much use as t1ts on fish!

If you're any where near Coalville then I would serisouly suggest Tim.

It's 8 hours of work.

Tim has a very good reputation, is very cheap and not full of BS. I would definitely trust him with my car from what I've seen and heard about his work and pricing.

I had a SMF conversion done on the T4 and it's still very smooth. Works out cheaper and with an 850R clutch can take more torque too.

Hi I know the fords with DMF when their flywheels are worn out the rubber bits that come off can cause the bendex gear on the starter motor to not mesh onto the flywheel gear ring it gets stuck in the off position ,motor just spins.

Hmmm...
Best quote so far...?

£1180

the plan...

Buy bits and pieces over the next few months and hang on to them until the clutch and/or DMF fails then offer a huge amount of beer tokens to those who are willing to help me sort it...

Oh-ek!

**t5_monkey** · Thursday 31st May 2012, 23:35

Go SMF dude....

500 beer tokens is worth some NVH

Thank you gentlemen, I'll be in touch. It won't be for a while yet - I'm teaching Mrs. MRP not to batter the clutch up when changing gear lol.
