Y32SE Clutch recommendations?
« on: 26 January 2013, 20:29:34 »
Having driven one of my manual 3.2's for the first in some time today I noticed the clutch is starting to feel worn. I suspect it's still got life in it, and is in no danger of going now...but I think getting a new clutch ready may not be a bad idea...this is where I need advice;

From what I understand the Y32SE clutch kit was an exchange unit, has anyone ordered one from VX in recent times, are they still available?

Is there an alternative? I.e. one from a later 3.0, even perhaps a Y26SE?

So...looks like all v6's are the same, although there are 2 possible part numbers, for some reason.
and that the R version (replacement as opposed to just buying) is half the price.

ill see if EPC sheds any further light

Thank you James! Very interesting, and at the TC price of £109...considerably cheaper than I thought. All dependant I suppose on if VX have any left.

EPC indicates

93185903 is the KIT for 2.6 and 3.0
93185904 is the KIT for 2.5

90542982 is clutch for 2.5
90543245 is clutch for 2.6 and 3.0

No mention of 3.2, guessing as police spec only

So looks like 2.5 had one, and anything bigger had the other.

Once again, many thanks James  :y
I suppose the vehicle will do 5k miles a year at max, so the 2.6/3.0 may well do, providing it physically fits  :-\

Looking at the TC extract, it shows the R models being the same as the 3.0 so think we can assume the 2.6, 3.0, 3.2 have the same parts

In addition to my pm...

Part numbers are...

Release bearing 90465672

Friction Plate 90543245

Pressure Plate 90487294

Relate to Plod Spec 3.2 clutch as fitted by Charles Warner, who serviced Lincolnshire Constabularys' Omegas.

HTH, Al.

Luk ok but didn't last as long as the original one, 100k, vs 135k. But maybe that's just me ::)
