406 hdi 110 clutch conversion

Hello, I have a 2002 2.0 hdi 110 with what sounds like a noisy thrust bearing as there is a squealing noise when depressing the clutch pedal.
Will a solid flywheel and clutch off a '98 406 2.1 td fit the car and bellhousing which is a pull release same as the hdi 110?
I would prefer to do away with the dual mass flywheel if I am replacing the clutch. I have a 2.1 flywheel and clutch from a car I bought for spares. Although I would fit new plates and thrust bearing.
Anyone done this type of conversion?

If you wish to fit a solid flywheel it's best to buy a valeo conversion kit. This is made with a clutch which they claim has extra 'give' in it to replicate the damping effects of a DMF. I've fitted quite a few of these to various vehicles with good results. The kit contains all clutch parts +flywheel and bolts and works out pretty reasonable. Eurocar spares normally stock these.

My 806 HDI 110 has a Valeo four part clutch conversion kit and it's great.
The engine is very slightly louder on full acceleration but otherwise you don't notice any difference.

Thanks for al your information . But what I really wanted to know is ' would the 406 2.1 flywheel fit onto my 2.0 hdi?'

Citroen list a different part number for the 2.1 TD flywheel vs the 2.0 HDi 110 (which uses a solid flywheel in the Xantia) - but the same clutch. So i might fit - there's probably only one way to find out!
