Hi all

You can probably guess wots just happened. I've tried to search recent answers on this but I'm just wondering what people are liking to use at the moment as regards clutch kits with arms and everything aswell, only thing is i have dodgy knees and I know some seem to have softer springs than others

She's a 98my 300 disco on 33" tyres

Many thanks people

@Disco1BFG has done a good write up on fitting a servo - one finger to press the pedal down.

Its probably the arm if it was sudden, make sure to get the reinforced one, or reinforce one yourself

Mine was sudden, no warning whatsoever and it was the plate.

@towsey956 ... late last year I fitted a full Valeo clutch to SWMBO's 97 D1 300Tdi - been fine since - also fitted the reinforced fork, and a new pivot ball and holder ....

And, ..... if your knees are struggling, then as @Flossie says - a servo is a very worthwhile, and cheap addition - SWMBO's D1 has one - highly recommended ... Here's the thread I did...

Indeed - which is why I have one - and also why SWMBO's is getting converted to auto quite soon - I have nearly all the bits now anorl
