i dont think so Dave... hard to say though, it doesnt look hot. the flywheel has obviously got warm but thats understandable with that much oil
I really should update this more often.... ive had the car back for a while now (and bought a Bora 150 sport), its been a hectic few months but next year ill be getting back to business..
the SEM will be going on as well as a few other mods, i really need to give it a clean too

hehe.... maybe i tempted fate with my last comment.
i had a good feeling about my car being fixed, the last thing i would have put the oil leak down to would be a hole (worn through by the clutch) in the bell housing
clutch cover must have a high point.... notice wear mark but i imagine this is mainly a fllywheel issue
hi mate what caused this wear on the gearbox, i have a uprated sachs clutch and it caught the boltts inside the gearbox, cut the bolts down and have renewed the flywheel as that had play in it after a few hundred miles of use
also where you get the solid flywheel from, i have put another dmf in mine but in the future may upgrade it to a smf,
thankyou

Hi, sorry for the delay. Something had come loose on the assembly, the bolts were not catching.
The flywheel was supplied by jabba, they do
Make your gearbox noisy but it's par for the course.

Hmmm, who told you that? Thinking about it mate. It would be a part ex with someone with LCR rims in good/mint condition as I'll need something on there going round
^^^hey Aaron, hope you dont mind, but can i ask a few questions about your Sportecs?
What tyre size are they
I know 19" Sportecs are lightweight, so they should weigh about the same as LCR standard 18s?
what do you pay tyre wise on them? Much more than 18s?
did you notice a difference driving with them over the 18?
cheers mate

Hi Bret
They're 235/35/19... If I remember they're about £150 each for vredesteins. I thought they were lighter than the LCR rim but I'd have to weigh one with my spare to be sure. I didn't notice that the ride was any harsher, or noisier... It did seem a bit quicker to turn in but then I did have spacers on my old rims.
