HELP! CVT clutch shims required

Hello All,

I've checked the auto clutch gap and the shims that are currently in there. I measured the clearance gap as 1.2 and I have 2x1.5 (3mm) shims in there at the mo. According to my calculations I need a total of 2.2mm of shimmage in there for a 0.4mm gap? Some guidance says a gap of 2mm + or - 1mm is OK, but to make sure there is no clutch drag it's better to go for 0.4mm min?

If I've worked this out correctly, ideally I need 6x0.5mm shims + 3x1.2mm shims (or something close). If anyone could help I would be very grateful. I think I might be able to get them from Danny in Holland, but thought I'd ask on here first.

I'll make it worth your while sm7

Thanks,

Soph

Bump!

Hi all,

Please can you state where you got the shims and CVT clutch from? I think mine have worn and need replacing. Please can you also quote part numbers?

Thanks

Jamie
