Both LUK and Valeo list 2 sets for this engine, with the change over at RP 14469 (20 06 2016). Both 250mm, so no idea what the difference is!

Yours was reg 27 05 2016 so should be the earlier one - Valeo kit 837396 (4 part) / LUK 625 3203 33 (3 part, ex flywheel - only seems to list one flywheel 425 0853 10).

If only we still had access to service box and could look up the OE part numbers. And prices for a laugh :twisted:

Ah, not come across them, I'll keep them in mind - thanks :)

They do list a clutch kit, LUK for my car and pleased to see it's 250mm as expected:

Seems a good chunk more expensive (£556.49 for clutch, pressure plate and release bearing/slave cylinder - Vs £475 for the same plus DMF I've just bought. (Valeo branded)

Are they one of these endless different discount places, like Autodoc?
They tend to have a sale on near bank holidays. Luckily for me there parts department said no and refused to send them as they wouldn't fit, so at least saved me the p&p sending them back.
