Clutch Material
SteveGoodz:
Okay folks,
Just a general question here. Does anyone know if the material used in clutches are carcenogenic when burned?
A mate of mine works for a large company with a fleet of Merc Sprinter vans. The van he is driving at the moment has a distinct smell of burned clutch and although he's complained about it his manager is being a bit awkward about providing a different vehicle.
V8MoneyPit:
Modern clutches/brakes are not allowed to contain asbestos. Not sure if any of the other stuff in there is a problem though.
Tommo:
You mean the clutch is going or he just doesn't like the smell?
Crack a magic tree in there unprotected!

He says the clutch is working fine, but it smells like it's been abused at some time in the recent past and smells really bad.
I think he's planning to get an air freshener today :)
