That's a release bearing, also known as a thrust bearing, the problem Tamara is having is not the release bearing.Silly Thor
Tamara, do you spend a lot of time with your foot on the clutch in gear whilst stationary?

So, are we agreeing now that the problem is the spigot bush and not the release bearing?
Ok, and this time I'll try soaking it in oil first, since the previous bushes didn't last very long. Anybody know why this issue plagues Td5s?
way back in time a spigot bush was always boiled up in gear oil and left to cool over night in the oil.also polish the spigot up with 800 grit wet and dry and wd40 or similar, clean it very well and pop a drop of oil on.
Now puritans may get their heads up their arses but filling the cavity behind the spigot bush with graphite grease is also something worth doing.
