Clutch and Flywheel

[Stephen Broadhurst]

Hello Everybody,

I have a 1999 S Class Petrol/manual Jag and I absolutely love it. Unfortunately, my clutch and flywheel have both gone 'pop' and need replacing. There is no after market on these so it is either Jag OEM at eye-watering prices or, obtain them from a breaker or eBay. The trouble is, can I trust either a breaker or eBay (where there are claims of suitable replacements in Italy) that they will be the right and good functioning ones? I haven't got a lot of money, but I need it to go and see my young son and I really like my old car - it still runs really well and doesn't deserve to be scrapped and neither do I want to do that. I have also tried various clutch specialists who claim to supply every clutch/flywheel for any car - that is apart from mine that is.

Can anybody please help me in sourcing/finding/buying the parts at a reasonable price?

Sincerely,

Steve

Hi Stephen, welcome to the club!

You could try these: https://parts.jaguarlandroverclassic.com/parts/index/part/id/C51.C5144.C5144259.C51442597099/brand/jaguar/

I'm not sure you'd find many breakers that have the bits you need but, personally, if you can find one I would only consider getting the flywheel from them.

Good luck!

Thank you Mark - this is greatly appreciated!

Hi Joe, Thank you for your help.

Europarts don't do the clutch ad/or flywheel and it looks like Brtish Parts don't do them either. Marks link does sell them but at Jag prices so  am still stuck.

Thanks both for trying but please keep your ideas coming everybody.

Sincerely,

Steve

Found these on fleabay - one is from the U.S. and the postage is a bit steep, but it's something.. I'm sure they'd clean up pretty well

Obviously you'd need to check part numbers.

Cheers, Mark
