no unfortunately not dont even know wot it is ?
havent got bolts either whoops!!

you shouldnt need any bolts, only the ones you take out.
When the clutch is assembled and bolted up there should be no play in the driven plate, its held firm by the pressure plate.. thats how it drives.
Are you feeling play in the spring/cushdrive assembly in the plate? if so then you may but only tiny. Is the plate in the right way around..

clutch plate cush drive in bits... broken, pic

I hope you didn't take the flywheel off.

It would have been a good plan to get RAVE before doing the job.

None of us can understand what is moving - well, I can't anyway.

Photos?

How about trying to find a normal flywheel to fit. that engine was fitted to lots of beemers and vauxhall omegas. might be worth finding out some mart numbers from these and scrap the dual mass altogether. Finding a good second hand one from the same engine in a different vehicle will be a lot cheaper, poss even a new one may be pretty cheap.
