    TD5 dual mass or covert to solid

    Have a bit of shutter when clutch is engaging.....clutch isn’t slipping therefore figuring it might be the dual mass flywheel causing the shutter.

    Given we are keeping the fender long term would it be best converting to solid flywheel??

    I believe converting is more costly on the initial change but cheaper going forward.

    Weeds the solid conversion is by far more 'reliable' however the rattle at idle especially when the transmission is warm, may annoy the heck out of you....

    How many klm’s on that clutch Weeds?
    My 03 td5 started juddering last year, thought it was the clutch failing but after a bit of investigation turned out to be the FPR was leaking into the bell housing and contaminating the clutch.
    Kitted the FPR and all good after a bit use to clean the clutch up.

    I had a solid flywheel in for maybe 50000. Refitted a dual mass flywheel. The old girl is much more civilised again.

    My last Valeo DMF lasted 80000 ks on a tuned Defender no towing but often heavily loaded and only with 1.44 transfer gears.
    I have a theory that the bad tuning of a few years back with a massive surge as the turbo comes on causes excessive wear.
    Torque based tuning with a VNT enables just as much torque but not all in one big surge a more gradual progression and less stress on the clutch.

    I've had this happen in a work Navara. Turned out to be the clutch plate fingers which for whatever reason were not even in height and were engaging the clutch on an angle. It would shudder for a bit and then as you let it right out would function fine with no slippage.
