So you think a DMF is complicated?

Post by Doggy »

Think again! Just look at this baby

Hmm... steel / carbon fibre composite flywheel rotating at 60,000 RPM, in a vacuum, - what could possibly go wrong?
2002 HDi 2.2 Exec Estate, (2008-12) (wonderful)
2003 HDi 2.2 6-speed Exec Estate (2012-19) (also a gem)
2009 Citroen C5 2.0 HDi VTR+ Estate (godawful heap)
2008 BMW E91 330i touring (great fun - murdered by a reversing SUV)
2007 BMW E91 325i touring (slower smoother quieter)

DMF? That's a bit of a sore point with me right now :frown:

Speaking of Moggy trunnions....A garage I used to work at was on a sharp corner....the number of times Moggys came round the corner and dropped the wheels was frightening :shock:
Later on the Marinas!!

BTW, Welly, I went round to drop my car off at the Volvo place my son works at yesterday so that he could fit the new front tyres I bought (they allow staff to use the facilities after work, with permission) I had a good look round the cars in stock and quite fancy a Volvo now, some good looking cars in there.

Looks like the plan is to make them even more complicated :roll: Running in a vacuum, just like the designer's minds.

Wasn't the old story the Marina was a Moggie redesigned over a liquid lunch?
