P2 dmf and clutch query.

[stribo]

Change it how and with what? A zero bank balance and a car in pieces won't get me to work. Bottom line.

Neither will a car with a failed DMF.

[LeeT5]

What part numbers are they,luk,sachs etc.?

They are all Volvo part numbers and Volvo only supply and fit SACHS clutch kits and DMF's.
Also, there are only two suppliers of clutchs and DMF's and they are LuK and SACH.
So that should answer your question mate

Tbf i think your car looks cracking James, and if thats the car you like, why not spend the money on it. I can understand colins view to a point , the only way id ever change my car (basic t5) is if i broke it as its worth more in parts than as a whole.

[LeeT5]

For the record my clutch, DMF and slave was £1400 fitted. Expect to pay alot less for the same on a P2 T5.
By the way, if you want durablilty and longevity its worth considering a clutch kit for a D5, they will fit a T5.

haha. i couldnt turn it down at the price i got offered it for. it was from a mrg custermer who had it fitted then decieded he wanted a smf and uprated clutch. mrg word that it was mint was good enough for me. the whole job cost me under £500 inc labour.

I think my clutch lasted 140k, 80 of that was under plod abuse (they changed the clutch at 50k but the 2nd one lasted till about 190k)

Did you get any kind of service sheet to show what the plod garage did to it?

[partsforvolvos.com]

you must have had the later modified clutch fitted to yours martin, Volvo modified it to increase the pressure.
they sometimes eat clutches like twinkies on duty .....

That's what I guessed. clutch at 50k, disks and pads every 20k, the poor old girl must have had a right kicking

The clutch that I put in there looked a lot like an S60R clutch (obviously it wasn't).
