    Today's progress:



    Approx 11kgs coming out...


    Approx 7.5kgs going in...


    Quick question:
    850r clutch... Will it work with the original hydraulic slave cylinder?
    Also anyone know the minimum thickness specification for an 850 clutch and where you measure it from? I heard it is thickness to the rivet or something?? Any ideas?

    Right 17:00 for a me... Bed time!!

    Yeah pretty sure we used the old slave cylinder when doing the conversion on my old T4 mate.

    If the S40 diesel is the same running gear as the Carisma diesel, which I believe it is, then it's a Volvo box as we had to get the oil from Volvo when we serviced the Carisma diesels which used the Renault 1.9TD engines. The Carisma even had Volvo gearknobs fitted with the Volvo font and Volvo stamped on the gearbox mounting craddle, lift up collar under the gear knob and up to the top left for reverse

    Wayne for 1 minute I thought you were doing a double clutch conversion, UK 1st a V40 T4 DSG anyone? lol

    Oh and one thing I have noticed... the SPEC pressure plate that has been removed is just a LUK plate painted blue, so the only thing I can see that is different is the friction plate itself..

    DMF is OK though, so it'll go and sit in thebparts box for a few years..

    Today's update - Flywheel fitted, clutch on and gearbox bolted up... not bad since working on my own levering the jack with my foot.. At one point I thought I was stuck with me holding the gearbox up as the jack slid almost causing catastrophic consequences.... but all is well.

    If I get out of bed early enough I have two choices.... reward myself at BKV.... or stay home and progress a bit further???
