My story is a bit long hope you don’t mind and if it’s at wrong section please correct me. I have 2015 GP 2.0 blue hdi 150 manual My flywheel was faulty due to engine vibration and flywheel faulty message on diagnosis and I had stiff clutch after I removed the gearbox I found out the clutch central slave cylinder is gave in and the bearing that’s inside the dual mass flywheel is gone as well so now there is loads of playing on the DMF. Car only done 30k miles and am not keen on buying the same make or model of dmf just looks rubbish to fail at that low mileage, considering my other cars done way above 120k and ten years of driving and still didn’t change dmf or clutch, this is just above 3 years and it was always giving me problems, stupidly didn’t take it to another Citroen dealers only my small town one till it was too late. Part number CSC 9675000480 (bought one new now) DMF 9808378880 DMF reconditioned 1649616080 ( service.citroen.com shows this not sure what this is) if fits my car it says. Any advise would be really great 👍. Other option would be send flywheel for repair but haven’t found any good garages yet or do they fix them here in the U.K.? |

If it's the same as my older 2.0 HDI then the slave cylinder is external and you can change that anytime. Probably less than half an hour to swap. Two bolts, the pipe is push fit, and then bleeding. | ||||

I think after 2006 this is not the case as all my c4 gp I had year 2007 on I could see gearbox had to come out to change slave cylinder. I might be wrong though? I’ll check the 15 reg I have access to and the 17 reg. |

Mine's a 2011 2.0 HDI, looking at the manual, they all seem to be external slave cylinders | ||||

I think I am talking about the wrong part must have got confused, I am talking about the release bearing slave cylinder or whatever is called, pls check photos it’s the last one now. It’s very loose and spin by hand I heard or saw online that it should not spin that easily or freely should have some restrictions to it. |

The release bearing is in the middle, the slave cylinder pushes the release bearing. A CSC is a concentric slave cylinder, where the slave cylinder is part of the release bearing rather than external to the gearbox. | ||||

I did purchase original CSC new one online. so now just the flywheel left. Am thinking rather than spending £500 on one I’ll look for repair garages and send it to one as only the pilot bearing is gone or what’re the name is. |

Any ideas if a flywheel with 6 bolts be ok for my car as mine has 8? As long as it sit properly what would be the problems? These are three piece kit, just can’t believe mine failed at 20k, that’s why I want to get a newer version for it as it might be better not sure. Details and photos about the cars they come from is at top of the thread |

Just an update One faulty injector was the cause Of DMF failure New 3 piece clutch kit was put in car set of 4 of injectors were bought online from a donor car done only 6k miles Now car is as good as new One thing though the CSC failure not sure if it was the faulty injector or not? As car was a pre rental car with 13k on the clock just at 6 months old when I bought it, I assume clutch was abused badly maybe that caused the issues, I never had issues with my clutch nor I ever caused one to fail in my 20 years of driving manual car, so car must have been damaged by the rentals, a car done 13000 miles just in six months or 180 days that’s more than 70 miles a day. |
