Oof! That is a spendy problem!
Interesting article
Nice vid. I like him, he explains stuff well. I sometimes watch his driving instructor vids too, to brush up on skills.
Yes he certainly does his homework properly.
Great video, learnt some things there, thanks for sharing
Interesting review on the pilot sport 5 at the end.
With the mileage Iām currently doing they will be on pilot sport 9 or 10 by then
I actually disagree with him on the PS5. Iāve had them on two cars now, and Iād say they are no way as good as PS4. Quite disappointed in them really.
Good to know, thanks for your insight.
Seemed like a good analysis. Dual mass flywheels in general have cost of lost of motorists a lot of money. A lousy bodge IMO.
By bodge, I mean there wasnāt a problem with the solid flywheel. Iād guess the change was meant to reduce the gearbox failure rate.
ISTR they came in originally on turbo diesels, which often produce their much higher maximum torque from fairly low rpm and hence the clutch and transmission are much more stressed. DMFs should not be necessary on high-revving naturally aspirated petrol cars.
had a dual mass flywheel give up a few years ago on a Audi, I still bear the scars, not a good thing to pay forā¦!
What type of flywheel is an āISTRā?
āI seem to recallā. Sorry.
