What clutch kit for a Connect TDDI?

[Cresser]

Does the TDDi and TDCI use the same clutch?

Do they both use solid mass flywheels? or is it a year thing for solid mass flywheels / dual mass flywheels?

Here are some links to what I have been looking at. Anyone got any thoughts on them?

I'd go for a Valeo clutch and slave cylinder, its whats usually fitted from factory, I'd also pop down to your local motor factors or give them a call, they might price match or beat that price, keeping local businesses going

plus if its wrong then you can just take it back instead of having no van for a week while a replacement gets posted.

Valeo , LUK or sachs. Either one of those will be spot on.


All connects as far as im aware dont have a DMF flywheel well all the ones ive done clutches on have been solid and no need to replace the solid flywheel unless its damaged. Replace the concentric slave as well

Thanks for the help. Will get the Valeo 3 pc. Just hoping the gearbox I got off e-bay is not a lemon

The lower PS connects have a solid flywheel. The higher PS ones with the Siemens injection system have a Dual Mass, which can be replaced easily with a SMF conversion kit.

who says higher output models have dmf,wrong info pal

[Jay101]

I thought the higher PS had solid flywheels on the MK2 connects. Sorry if I am wrong but I am 99.9% sure that some connects have a dmf!

afaik some very early 52 plate ones had them.....75 and 90's,110's came in '56/07 with smf

[Jay101]

My bad then! I know the clutch that Is sold does both the smf and dmf though!
