Valeo Clutch Kit - xantia 1.9 TD

Post by roypch »

Hi All
I have purchased a Valeo Clutch Kit - (kit no 801416) for Xantia 1.9TD.
The friction disc in the kit has a an irregular scraping on it (on both the mating surfaces - black surface). It is like kids trying to draw a line with a blunt tool on the black surface :-(
Is this normal ?

They are some sort of fibre reinforced resin, if memory serves when I did mine it had some sort of "scribble" pattern on it.

Many thanks, Kowalski. I was on the phone demanding a replacement from the supplier and he said all the kits he has in stock has this 'scribble' pattern!
