Why replace a dual mass flywheel?
If the clutch fails, why does the dual mass flywheel invariably have to be replaced? This repair is extremely expensive.

A dual mass flywheel in a 2003 will be close to the end of its life anyway, and if you don't have it replaced at the same time as the clutch you will face a further £500 dismantling bill in order to replace it.
