    2.0 Skyactiv when letting clutch out first thing in the morning (particularly when damp), even on gentle take-up with few revs. The juddering goes once car driven for a few minutes and clutch take-up becomes smooth. (Might have a DMF.) I'm wondering if anyone has any experiance of this? I've

  • Mitsubish Shogun 3.2 DiD - Dual mass flywheel 30 Jun 2011 (Forum)
    The dual mass flywheel on my Shogun has failed. Would anyone recommend replacing it with a solid flywheel conversion ? Apparently the kits are supplied with an Exedy clutch plate equipped with larger springs to replacing the dampening effect of the DMF.

  • Advice on confronting dealer 5 Apr 2009 (Forum)
    by our local Volvo main dealer and described as probably the clutch & DMF in urgent need of replacing. Cost to fix - something in the region of £1,000. The car came with a three year third-party warranty. But as there is no doubt wear & tear involved in this problem, I don't expect the warranty

    that this was quite an expensive job. So i had been wondering about sourcing the parts myself beforehand, then i will already have them when the time comes. But i'm not too sure exactly what i'd need to be looking for as the clutch and DMF seem to be inextricably linked. So, would i need to buy a clutch

    because he says it cannot possibly be that and I'm inclined to agree. He has spoken to the Technical people at Sachs whoi say that the starter motor engages directly with the flywheel which is one solid piece bolted onto another solid piece with 6 nuts.  Any excess movement in the DMF cannot possibly

    or strange 'DMF living on borrowed time' noises and there are no shudders, aside from a very slight judder when pulling away first thing in the morning in winter.
