Can some one explain please. How is verto clutch different? Are they better, worse, specific purpose, waste of money? |

The verto clutch was introduced to help eliminate clutch shudder (primarily) compared to the earlier non verto (I think that's why they changed). Differences: A non verto will have a long arm to activate the clutch, a verto has the slave cylinder mounted on an angle (pointing down towards the drivers side tyre) connected to a much shorter arm. I think they are much of a muchness really (from what I have heard). |

Until 3 days ago I had two cars with very similar engine/box combinations. They both had standard flywheel/clutch setups. Mokesta has a standard (old style) clutch and Camilla had a verto. I find that Mokesta suffers from clutch judder when taking off slowly. Camilla was a very much nicer car to drive in stop start traffic. I'm told that the verto combination is heavier, so those after light flywheels go the earlier system. M |

I believe a Verto clutch is self adjusting. Some people say that you can't get as many different types of clutch plate for the Verto, (not as common as the standard ones). I have one in my Rover (as standard) and it works a treat, although the motor is pretty standard. I think they last longer too. |
