No, only the 110 and the 136BHP HDi's have DMF's.

I was talking clutches to my mechanic last week and he said that motor factors are pushing 4-piece kits now which include a new flywheel for not much more money than the traditional 3-piece.

Apparently many cars have the 3-piece kit fitted at great expense only to find the judder is still there and is being caused by the old flywheel! :|

Is this a common problem with the 110 Hdi - I have one with 52k 02 model so a bit worried for the future etc. I sed to work for a motor factor and thery esed to sell similar kits for TDCI fords etc as I think they can suffer from the same problem.... Hope mine does not go as only just put a cambelt kit, waterpump, full service and a rear exhaust box on it!!!
