Can you replace it once removed i.e. did the garage give it to you or ditch it??

They gave me the valve back just in case I wasn't happy with the result but it's definitely not going back on!

Can someone tell me, in super simple(ton) terms, what this does? What difference does it make? (and is it a manual or automatic thing)?

It restricts the flow of clutch fluid which can make releasing the clutch feel not natural.ihadablackdog wrote: ↑Sat Apr 14, 2018 8:25 pm Can someone tell me, in super simple(ton) terms, what this does? What difference does it make? (and is it a manual or automatic thing)?
If you try and dump the clutch the fluid is restricted to stop damage to the drivetrain making the car kangaroo until the clutch is released fully.

It sets a limit on how quickly the clutch can be engaged/disengaged regardless of how quickly you move your left foot.

It has no effect when you put your foot on the clutch, only when you release it.markalp wrote: ↑Sat Apr 14, 2018 9:22 pmIt sets a limit on how quickly the clutch can be engaged/disengaged regardless of how quickly you move your left foot.
