The original DMF is usually OK unless you have ultra high mileage and DMF vibration type symptoms. The more experienced guys here will tell you what slave cylinder NOT to get (the TAZO metal one springs to mind, I think). I think I remember the Land Rover clutch kit being a LOT less money than the Rover one and is the same parts.

Cheers,
Glenn

That is low mileage. I wonder if there is oil or hydraulic fluid leaking onto the clutch? Maybe the original slave started leaking and took out the clutch friction disk.

Most unusual if you need a DMF.My DMF is on 184k miles and still well within spec.

Gone at 64K? it will depend how the car was driven before you had it
