DMF failures affect all the diesle cars inclduing the japs and teh BMW's.

The trouble is the failure mode on the Fords (and consequently also the jags) is the most spectacular!

Still, a flywheel is not a wear and tear item and they should last longer but the torque they have to endure often gets the better of them.

The latest setups still use the DMF's but, they smooth the power delivery during shifting etc to stop them being exposed to the massive torque of full bore gear changes away from the lights.

Oh go on, twist the knife while you are at it!

For that comment I expect to see you under the Jag helping out in a couple of weeks time.
