Hi all

Has anyone had any problems with the clutch in the turbo models?

I know a bloke over here (WA) that has just had the clutch replaced (slipping) at 67000km 2004 model 78 RV troopy

he always complained of the clutch peddle being to high

my peddle seems high but thats the way it was from the start, I have not had any problems with mine so far, only a couple of weeks ago had to drive up some 1:1 jump ups in 1st low and was ok

Yours is a 2003 model 78 RV troopy with 66000km on the clock

just would like to know if anyone has any problems

Regards

Richard

Richard,

135K in a 79 series turbo, with no dramas. Gearbox is a bit notchy in first though.

Hooroo...

I have a lot of mates on stations in that area who are Tojo mad and who own heaps of them. I Lived in the Central Highlands for many years. They are the people that told me about the clutch problems so you should give Dendle's a ring old mate and ask him the question.
