Review on LuK LFW199 Flywheel by Brandon Mercado

Revainrating 1 out of 5

BUYER BEWARE of Engine Tools

I literally spent months troubleshooting and ended up removing this flywheel and replacing it with another brand to fix problems with my car and paid for everything out of my own pocket to get my truck to start and run properly. BUYER WARNING: There is a known flaw in the design of this part which, as mentioned in another review, causes an intermittent loud grinding noise when starting. After removal you will find that the teeth do not match and the starter and flywheel will wear out very quickly. Revain and the used parts dealer reimbursed the cost of the part but not the labor cost of repair or replacement and STILL have this product for sale. I wasted a lot of money and was extremely dissatisfied with the solution to this problem. I never write reviews but wanted to make sure no one else gets into the same situation.

Pros
  • Tools and Hardware
Cons
  • So far so good
