Clutch cylinder replaced on my 2007 V70 sports edition P11 163 bhp at 118,000 replaced with a new DMF plate and bearing as informed the oil would have contaminated the clutch anyway as the box was out it made common sense. Total cost £1,320 inclusive of the tax.

'06 (P2) S80 D5, currently on 191k. I have no idea if any of it has ever been replaced, although I have a feeling the clutch isn't all that old going by the feel of it.

The car is a former private hire vehicle and I think most of it's miles were done on open roads as it's from a fairly rural area of Scotland. Whatever the score with it, if/when it goes I'll be doing the deed myself and checking for date codes.

Mine went at 115k on my XC90, so everything was replaced with genuine Volvo parts from FRF

Its not common at all , you only get to hear about the few that fail, but there are many many more that never fail. They can fail at any time 200 miles or 200,000 miles there is no pattern.

I had one go on my S70 at something like 90k miles. Since then I've done probably 500k miles in cars with CSCs (all of which had six-figure mileages; two of them 300k+), and never had a further problem, touch wood. The two particularly high mileage cars both had new clutches (both slipping when hot, and the second car eventually had a DMF failure) at around 260-270k miles, and new CSCs at the same time...but yes...not a major issue. If it happens, it happens, but it's not "common".

cheers

James
