[V8] Clutch disc confusion

[Geraint Lloyd]

Just did the clutch on the wife's 200 Q Avant
well, I had it done, but still feel guilty about not
doing it myself.

Also had a problem with the release bearing. at 150K
miles
The clutch looked ok but used, however the release
bearing was never
going to work well with metal chippings instead of
ball bearings.
