To the Clutch experts

malagas · 22nd February 2019, 18:15

Hello there,
I ask for help to the clutch experts because soon i'll change the clutch of my 75 cdt 160 remaped.

As i already have the Tazu's master and slave to assemble, I would like your opinion for the following:

1 - Is the replacement of flywhell always recommended in this operation?

2 - If i choose to mount a solid flywheel clutch conversion what are the advantages and disadvantages vs dual mass flywhell?

Thank you very much for your attention.

The dual mass flywheel on our vehicles is very rarely required to be changed. You just have to make sure the movement is within tolerances.

Do not fit a single mass flywheel, similarly do not fit a Tazu metal slave cylinder.

Both items are to the detriment of the car

Have a look in the --How-To --threads. Lots of answers in there.
