stevie m Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 I have just been told tonight that i am in need of a new dual mass fly wheel. I know these are expensive, can anyone point me in the right direction as to get one at a reasonable cost. I have had such a bad day and this has topped it off. Many thanks Stevie.m ;) Quote
gregers Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 ive just checked flea bay,LOOK LIKE THERE QUITE A FEW BEER TOKENS M8 ;) ;) dunno if this part could be soured from a scrappy,or a car thats being broken up on ebay might be worth emailing some of the sellers to see. Quote

I thought of that but rac man said no when i spoke to him when he was fixing my saxo tonight when the exhaust fell off while doing 70 in the overtaking lane. Left warrington at 6 got in at 10.20pm ;) Thanks for the reply Gregers i will ask others too but i would rather buy a new one. Quote
Rusty Nail Posted January 23, 2008 Report Posted January 23, 2008 Unfortunately Stevie, you are best to get a new one and no they are not cheap. You wouldn't put second hand discs on you car, so why would you fit a second hand flywheel? From what I have seen it typically costs arounf Quote
Neils TDi again Posted January 23, 2008 Report Posted January 23, 2008 Try GSF they can identify the exact part from your VIN and its about 60% cheaper than the stealers N Quote
stevie m Posted January 23, 2008 Author Report Posted January 23, 2008 (edited) Thank you all for your help. Unfortunately the build date for mine is before the recall (Thanks mumof4 anyway ;) ) I have found a clutch and dual mass flywheel and I have got an amazing deal ! Far cheaper than everybody has said (no i haven't pinched it ;) ). Got someone to fit it too. I have saved hundreds ! I have also learn't that there is a conversion kit out there to change it into one. ;) Edited January 23, 2008 by stevie m Quote
stevie m Posted January 23, 2008 Author Report Posted January 23, 2008 Gsf are giving me a deal. Quote
JDHogg Posted January 24, 2008 Report Posted January 24, 2008 Thanks MO4. I have a 130 and wasn't aware of that recall - I now live in IE so prob didn't get the notice. Will follow up with Frauds. (Good luck Stevie) Cheers,John Quote

(Good luck Stevie) Cheers,John Your welcome :lol:Makes me wonder how many others didnt get the recall.... there have been quite a few recalls for the galaxy, inc the S-max, that site is very good at checking to see if your vehicle is being recalled for any reaon and it goes back to 1992 IIRC.
