  • Ford - Ford Dual Mass Flywheels 14 Nov 2009 (Forum)
    I'm sure the answer is already here somewhere, but I have been unable to find it, so apologies in advance. I was under the impression that dual mass flywheels were fitted to diesels and possibly V6 models but have read that they are fitted to all petrol engine Mondeos up to 2007 as well. Could

  • Dual mass flywheels 15 Jun 2005 (Forum)
    Can anyone explain the sudden growth in dual mass flywheels. My local independent tells me they have to change these on Transits and Sprinters quite frequently (£400 on the sprinter) as well as several cars. Not bad if under warranty, but horrendously expensive if you have to do it yourself I

    Sorry to be a bit dim. It seems that almost every day on the forum there is some reference to dual mass flywheels and their problems. Now it seems that I possess one of these and so far it has remained in good health, I'm delighted to say. However, out of curiosity, could I just ask
