What mileage are you on? It might worth changing the dmf as well whilst the gearbox is off and definitely stick with a genuine thermostat, pattern ones never reach the right operating temperature in my experience.

It's around 95k that's why I'm sticking a clutch in because there's nothing for q clutch in the history. Flywheel wasn't making any noise at all and clutch felt fine before engine went. Trying to keep the cost down lol
