DONT EVER USE A BRITPART CLUTCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
yes i have a reason to say this
firstly my dad has a 200 disco his clutch fork went so he put a whole new britpart clutch in, lasted 80 miles then the strangest thing happened the big thick metal plate inside there snapped :evil: so i took it back to paddocks and got so much abuse off their staff...
never use paddocks or britpart
my 90 is a 200 and i replaced the engine last year and put a new britpart clutch in just because, new fork bearing aswell,
well at easter this year, the clutch fork went through and when i took it apart the bearing was knackered
britpart is not only useless it is dangerous aswell :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil:
disco 1 tdi:
Ive never had a problem with britpart, most of the parts ive bought are from them and they generaly turn up quickly, fit well and are good value, and ive never been sent a wrong part.
Ive decided to go down the britpart clutch route because if i dont try i wont know, and ive read alot about people having problems with more expensive brands.
what metal plate broke?
kizz81:
ouch dear me, good luck
interestly enough paddocks insisted i had abused it [ considering it wasnt my vehicle or clutch as they hadnt noticed i had turned up in my vehicle ] annoyed me a little as we had only driven to my student house and back 80 miles,
some people stick by britpart, and too be honest before this year i swore by them but never again, total rubbish they sell :evil:
glad to hear your gearbox all went ok :)
