old thread i know but saves starting a new one....


i've got an alcon 6 paddle clutch thats fooked... not sure if its a ford cover or the alcon one...

sat in traffic for 2 hrs and now its had it...

somebody told me that its glazed up but i'm not sure about that. done about 100 miles on motorway after that and its still had it. into 5th at 30mph. floor it and it slips like a git. oddly no smell

slips when it comes on boost... doesn't crunch into gear. not done many miles really... 6k max...

how long do they last usually?


anyting else worth thinking about or is this pretty much the best?

 

30mph in 5th,,,,,,,,,, see your still ragging the old girl


rob they dont seem to last well if you dont skim the flywheel and get juddery aswell,,,,,, could be that perhaps

 

 

yep it did judder a bit before...

so

i need a new alcon paddle clutch and alcon cover?

and get the flywheel skimmed?

any idea on cost on these matey?

 

thats what i got and its been fine


im borrowing xrt-si's xr2 turbo and hes got a ap 4 paddle and that judders in traffic like a cunt but i found that if you add a bit more gas the judder stops


even that feels fine tbh so cant see the standard cover being needed

 

think skimming is 40 quid and the clutch kit is around 300 ish

if you need a hand fitting it dont be afraid to give me a shout


ohn and btw you comming central day/piss up

 

cheers dude.

hmmm

i'll do that then. might as well get it skimmed if its that cheap...

work paid for donington park show. got a free track session when it closed... nice fresh sunny day by the end
