Cheers for the link a duel mass flywheel from them is £215 + VAT. Much cheeper than Vauxhalls £700.

Well, it's all appart and I've got my new clutch thrust / release bearing. Part No. 90465672. It cost £66

With everything appart I also found that the needle bearing in the end of the crank shaft had broken up. This is the bearing that carrys the end of the gearbox input shaft into the crank shaft and therefore supports the clutch. I have a new one of thoes on order as well now, part No. to follow, cost £3.61.

I'm guessing (hoping) this was responsible for all the noise. There's no noticable lateral play from the flywheel. I can by hand rotate one part a little with out the other by about 1 degree (or about 4mm if you were to draw a line on the outer face). Is this correct?

Cheers
Nath
