These units look quite different than a normal one-piece flywheel. The DMF is blamed for many complaints including noise, clutch slippage, and total failure. However, it is not always the root of the problem! So much information and mis-information exists on this item that it is almost impossible to detail here; fortunately Capitol Clutch and Brake has the answers regarding operation, how to diagnose problems and testing of the DMF.
