    Hi, I've got a Vauxhall Zafira 2008 Diesel and I've done just 28,000 miles. I took it to the garage today and they have said that the dual mass flywheel has gone (confirmed by another garage). I'm looking at a bill for over a £1,000. Question: - Can I take this up with Vauxhall ? If so

  • Toyota Yaris II/Vitz (2006 - ) - DMF Failures 19 Oct 2008 (Forum)
    I just came across this article from the Telegraph and note in it that HJ suggests 3 diesels - 2 Toyotas and 1 Ford. http://tinyurl.com/679psa HJ mentions the possible problem of dual mass flywheel failure with the Ford but not with the Toyota. I thought that virtually all new diesels had dual

    dual mass flywheel!" The car is duly booked in at the nearest Audi agent (25 miles away) for this Thursday on the tech's say-so. I remember it being recalled when almost new for a flywheel check (probably a duff batch) but was given all-clear. Mercifully the warranty will cover this, but what

    Apologies if this is a stupid question, but are a clutch and a dual mass flywheel two seperate things?. When i had my Caddy MOT'd in May, the mechanic reckoned the clutch was on it's last legs. But i wasn't too convinced as it seemed (and still seems) fine to me with no judder or slippage

    of £600 + labour. I have now read about problems with the dual mass flywheel so have contacted Peugeot who advise that because it hasn't actually failed I cannot claim under their warranty.

    was notified of this, but had no interest in checking the vehicle while stripped down ,so therefore there was no other option than to put back together and van was still running the same.
