    new clutch in td4 now bite is on the floor

    ya i asked the guy who fitted it and he used a pressure bleed kit yesterday and was still the same so i told him rather than whipping it all out again and costing another shed load id give it a week and see.He thought it might be the dual flywheel that needed to be changed ?
