Hi

Basically ive been hunting a vibration for a while now, and i over the weekend i removed the engine and changed the dual mass flywheel, now im getting a lot of clutch drag, is there a specific way of rebleeding the td5 clutch or is there something ive missed?

After much head scratching and beer drinking i have come to realise that i may have put the clutch friction plate on the wrong way, as it wasnt marked i took a guess and have gotten it wrong, so its another engine out and a swap round. i hope other people find this useful,
