Yeah i got a smf and new clutch replaced 1000km ago. There was a vibration down low in 3rd right after it was replaced. but it has gotten to the point now that it is hardly noticeable now it is beaded in. It is a lot more responsive to drive now which feels good under foot.

What brand clutch and fly wheel did you go for and what was it like for cost. Also was that a heavy duty clutch? Cheers Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk

Hi Mate I have been using delo 15w40 for a couple of yrs and done many services and i prefer this oil. engine runs smoother especially when cold. I do changes every 5000km . But if your worrried about price buy in 20l drum from caltex and you'll get the best deal

Yeah I checked all those things FGK288 and today i checked all the vac system and the actuator and all is working perfectly. I've done alot of research today and i have read a bit about the egr valve failing and being left open what do people think about the likenesses of that

Hi all My father in law has a d40 v9x This afternoon while he was driving it lost pretty much all power i went for a run with him and plugged in my obd scan tool. And found it wasn't getting any boost pressure. It would get only as high as 4psi Now i know the boost solenoid can be an issue...

Hi ALL I've got a weird thing that happened to my d40 after coming off the canning stock route. when i'm doing heavy acceleration ( so when the waste gate is fully open) it sounds like a really loud turbo whistle but stops as soon as you ease off. i thought at first it may have been the turbo...
