Default Luk repset clutch kit

Well as I finish for my holidays & the clutch has gone it's slipping badly so needs replaced asap. I'll be stripping tomorrow and hopefully can get a clutch same day as I see Euro has one in stock or I can maybe get one next from car parts4less.

Anyone know anywhere cheaper than the above?

I've only quickly checked for a zt but the td4 also fits iirc and maybe cheaper

I replaced my clutch about 2 years ago with a TD4 assembly from the same source parts4less and it's holding up fine. Also got a new Slave therefrom
cheers

The LUK kit is fine, and perfectly up to the job.
We sell a lot of LUK slave cylinders, and these days they seem very reliable.

If you can hang on for a day, we have a couple of options available to you for delivery tomorrow morning:
OEM-Q - https://www.dmgrs.co.uk/products/bud...1069-uub105301
Borg & Beck & LUK / Metal Slave Cylinder - https://www.dmgrs.co.uk/products/bor...1069-uub105301

Forum discount of 5% with code FORUM5 of course applies to either, too.

Of course you don't. What can you possibly replace a 75 with?

When I did mine recently, I used a TD4 LUK repset, from AP parts jungle (?) from ebay - this is a sister company to Andrew Page, like when I called their helpline due to a shipping error I was informed I was through to the Andrew Page Internet shopping helpline.....

So, the TD4 clutch kit fits a diesel 75 (so presumably a ZT diesel too), but was ~£70 cheaper...

TD4 / 75 / ZT diesel clutches are indeed all the same.

And you can't replace a 75/ZT with something else - it's just not possible!
