I have just installed the new standard clutch onto my Mk4 XR3i engine, and also the release bearing onto the gearbox input shaft, as below
My question is does it need any lubrication/grease around the input shaft sleeve, where the clutch bearing slides, bearing in mind i dont want to contaminate the clutch plates etc etc, The Haynes manual says to put some "MOLYBDENUM DISULPHIDE" grease onto the splines, but mentions nothing about the sleeve
