What do you mean by 40w? for example 10w40 broken down 10w is the cold rating, 40 is the hot rating.

If you are using 10w40 and it's ticking, try a 5w40 (example motul 8100 x-cess) or a 0w40 (mobil 1 gold something)

Ah yeah sorry, I meant straight 40. Not 40w. As said, we don't have cold weather (tropical island), 28~32 centigrade all year. My oil knowledge is pretty poor, and I usually stick with straight weight oils or 10w-30/40. So my Q is, should I stick with straight weight 30 or 40 since I get ticking with 40? I will google for more oil knowledge. :thumbsup:

    • How would you even adjust the clutch if the pedal already has the correct free play? The operating cylinder has no adjustment in mounting position or rod length. On pull style clutches there is also no ability to adjust the bearing carrier. Push type I can see how adjusting the carrier height makes it all work.   If this is the twin plate clutch did you verify that your friction disks were oriented correctly? It's not mentioned in the directions at all you just have to notice that one side the friction disks have a part number on the hub fingers and a subtle coning to those fingers. Another thing that I noticed was if you put the friction disks in backwards the pressure plate fingers will not be even and flat when the clutch is installed.
    • yeah, mechanically, it is probably do-able, off the top of my head, there would be the transfer case, which I believe will bolt up to the rear of the RWD transmission, the shorter rear tail shaft. A front drive shaft, front diff, engine upper sump, front drive shafts, front hubs and front AWD struts (they are shaped around the front drive shafts), LCAs (at the very least from the front suspension) oil cooler.  You might want the rear diff from an AWD too, so you can be certain the front and rear diff rations are identical.  Who knows what brackets and mounts you might need.  So a whole doner car might be the best option if you need to maintain RHD. Then actually making it work, that would be a whole different story.
