    Diagnostic tool

    If the starter is clicking then I would suggest the car is trying to crank it but it will not as you have a flat battery or missed of a cable or two, earth strap etc.

    New clutch lasted 243 miles

    I would say it is pretty much impossible to physically check the clutch whilst still in the car, but as you have done a good few miles since then it should be no worries.

    Normal ones have three point of contact, the one in your pic only has two, door one does not so much take any load but stops it shaking about to much, bit like your feet carry you up the stairs but every now and then being able to hold onto the handrail makes you feel secure. As for which is...

    Tow ball drop plate.

    Iirc the series x member has some holes in the bottom face, this is for a piece of angle iron to attach to to allow the drop plate to fix to the angle iron to save twisting the rear x member.

    Flywheel run out 200tdi

    Think only the other week someone on here was selling a freshly skimmed 200 flywheel. As it is an arse job to get box out once the car is together I would be inclined to sort it out while it is easy to get at.
