Hi All,

I was changing the gear box oil today and noticed that I might be missing a flywheel cover plate.
Firstly should there be one there and secondly if there should would I be able to fit a new one with the engine /gearbox in the car.
Please see attached photos
Thanks Phil

Are you saying that I will be able to fit the plate from under the car without having to take anything apart.
Cheers Phil

Yes, Phil. Fits no problem. We like to fit them as a stone (or similar) finding its way in there could be nasty!
