Default Re: Flywheel Pressure plate balance issues.

Anthony, it is possible you can balance the flywheel/clutch assembly in the car yourself. If you can access the pressure plate bolts, substitute a bolt with another with four plain washers and longer bolt. Run motor and feel for improvement. It may be worse. If not cured move heavier bolt round clutch until improvement felt. Mark pp when you move bolt. Finally fit with Loctite.
This is no substitute for proper dynamic balancing during assembly, but I have a local balancing firm who have equipment to do this on their car lift, and it can work very well.
