DMF verses SMF
I know its probably been asked before but
I've got the box out due to mechanical issue's and have a considerably amount of play in the DMF, do I replace with another DMF or go for a solid flywheel







regards kevin

Unless you use it for heavy duty off road use, have a high end remap on your ECU or race it, I would suggest stay with a genuine (Valeo) DMF.

That said check LOFs website they do a new SMF. Though I would personally go for a new DMF, cheapeast is from LOF as well, basically trade price. Instagram @defender_ventures

I got a Valeo DMF off ebay a few months back, £305 delivered.

Made a million % improvement to my 110... no rattling/knocking and it seems to drive smoother now as well (I know I know, "smooth" and "defender" in the same sentence.... relative terms y'see Laughing )
