Post Re: Clutch problem
The clutch in my car is like an on/off switch, you simply can't slip it or attempt to because it judders like mad, regardless of whether it's hot or cold or changing gear at speed or whatever, its bloody horrible to be honest. I dont know much about which different clutch is which but it's obviously going to be a fairly old fashioned type. I've not got round to taking the engine out of it yet and having a look, but does this sound like it's similar to the problem Vikings having? Where should I look for a solution, before my car judders itself to pieces like a clowns car.

I am pretty sure that your friction plate, pressure plate and flywheel is glazed (blue). Only solution is to replace the clutch kit and importantly machine the flywheel (slightly coarse not smooth) Modern clutch kits no longer contain asbestos acting as heat shield.
I guees the clutch judder in 1st and reverse?

Update.

I removed the engine and discovered the buggered thrust bearing, see start of this post. Tossed it aside, pulled out an old pressure plate and fitted old type graphite bearing. Happy to report after test driving today that all problems are gone. That would be the end of those shit clutch kits made by MCDA. Time to look for other solutions.
Would be very happy Sean if you could find some details about any mob interested in reconditioning pressure plates in the UK.

http://www.lkperformance.co.uk/brakes-clutches/panther/clutch-kits/citroen/dyane/573/328/3521/312923

cant find an address for the company yet

could try the resellers
LK Performance can be contacted at the following address:

LK Performance and Styling
34 Bradford Road
Cleckheaton
West Yorkshire
BD19 3LL
UK

Tel: 01274 877787

Fax:01274 872992

Email:enquiries@lkperformance.co.uk

but as i said LK seem to be a puveyor of glitzy tack and I suspect the main customer base to be 2nd generation imported mill workers with their penchant for showy cars....

ken i believe ,knew of someone who was able to get the friction plate re lined whether this is something thats still available i dont know.
