When the stealer changed the g/box/transfer case I forget which under warranty years ago on my 2010 Defender, I asked the service foreman to ensure the adaptor shaft was greased...... "It is not a service item" he said in a subcontinent shop accent.
So there ya go, a bit of grease is too much for them.
AlanH.
I’ve just gotten it back from the mechanic, slave was gone and bearing was leaking as well apparently.
Clutch springs were loose.
Parts changed as per DazzaTD5’s list.
Cost just under $2000.
(Thanks very much DazzaTD5 for the advice!!!)
My mate ended up paying $1600 for the job to replace the slave cylinder. He doesn't post on here but I pointed him toward the thread and the recommendations to replace other parts whilst they were at it, but he passed. His choice.
It wasn't Rovertech who did the work but some other Land Rover guy, possibly near Bibra Lake?
Thanks for all the posts.
You can lead a Defender TDCi owner to a new clutch and all the bits but ya can't make them put it in [bigrolf]Quote:

Anyway, if your mate can't even coff up $11 per year for a AULRO subscription, then well more fool him [tonguewink]
