release arms rarely fail on td5s as not the pressed steel part like tdis,clutch plate is easy to get wrong way round as it fits the other way than looks normal,input shaft in gearbox can jam against spigot bush

it's a matter of luck/bad luck i think... i fitted(with plate in correct position
) then removed AP clutch kit cos it didnt engage well... sent it back and they said it was destroyed while it was fitted:flame: ... put britpart HD kit and worked brilliant(and it still does after about 10K miles)

why new arm ,correct push rod,did you have to pull box up with bolts or did it push up easy to engine,is possible to get poor clutch cover
