Dual Mass Flywheels
Anyone know what the crack is with Dual Mass Flywheel's?
All I know is the one on my Audi A6 tow car has failed, and its £611 to replace it. Aside from giving Audi the opportunity to fleece me, anyone know what they're for? |

supposedly they make for a smoother engine, but having driven zillions of beemers some with them and some without i've never noticed a difference, it just seems like a lot of stuff on modern cars,
One more thing to go wrong |
