Are they Jag prices ? or other ?

Surely DMF is only diesels & not needed every clutch change.
Certainly my Alfa JTD didn't need one when the clutch was done.

Lots of modern cars use DMF's, and they arent renowned for being that reliable either.

because of that...while its apart doing a clutch change....do you replace, or not replace ?

In another 100K, will the flywheel fail, and you have to strip everything again ? Or do you just replace it as a wear and tear item ?

I would only replace the dmf if it was scored badly. No point spending money unless absolutely necessary.

the problem with dmf is the springs becoming worn

they then kill starters
