Description
This Valeo clutch kit is the Heavy Duty TDi clutch kit as fitted to the 130 Defenders, the cover plate and the release bearing are the same as the normal TDi clutch kit, the difference is the friction plate has a much stronger centre which is a common failure point on the normal TDi version, please note that the purpose of the springs in the friction plate are to absorb some of the punch of the diesel engine to reduce the ‘gearbox chatter’ common on the LT77 and R 380, the 130 centre has stronger springs which will increase the gearbox chatter, pls see our FAQ section for more info.
This clutch will fit all tdi vehicle, 90, 110 and 130.

Good quality clutch kit, can’t fault Valeo equipment. Ashcrofts were the cheapest I could find for a heavy duty clutch , very quick delivery too. I’ll be able to try it when TNT finally decide to deliver my new gearbox…….
