Hi, a previous cdt I had developed clutch slip after 112k, having pulled a caravan a dozen or so times, I fitted clutch and the rotational "play" was just within tolerances, so left it in... With this car I'm expecting clutch to go, because car has now covered 121k and was fitted with a towbar when I bought it 2 years ago. On top of that clutch pedal was heavier than I was used to, and a 160 remap, led me to assume the clutch wouldn't last as long. However 2 years later, with the addition of a "Ron" type box, I now have plenty of low range torque which is just too much fun to ignore.. All these things tell me that a clutch replacement is inevitable at some stage. The DMF question arose from the previous one that I just-got-away-with.. I hope not to have to fit one, and as I alluded to in original question, wouldn't fit Solid if general consensus was a no no.... Thanks all.. Long may we rove..
