Throw Out Bearing Questions

Are 086141671C and 086141671L interchangeable? Is the L version just a later revision? According to please check with our franchised lamborghini dealer sponsors it was used for 2010/SV Murcielago. It is much cheaper than the C part number which is OEM for LP640 prior to MY2010. It is the TOB used on Gallardo, so are they interchangeable or is please check with our franchised lamborghini dealer sponsors part listing wrong?

Edit: This site filter's removed the links to the vendor I was linking to, but the question remains the same. Was 086141671L used on the 2010 Murci LP640 and is it interchangeable with the much more expensive part 086141671C?

Does Hill Engineering make one for the Murci?

So I used the code I wrote earlier to compare parts for E-Gear vs Manual Murci and changed it to compare the 2010 Murci vs 2007-2009 Murci.

In addition to the Throw Out Bearing being different the clutch housing is also updated. These are the parts that show as being different:

So it seems you could upgrade it and then save money in the future if having to do the TOB again.

I remember a thread a while back on here or the other forum going through all those ideas of changing the bell housing to have lower cost TOBs.

I seem to remember the consensus being that it’s not worth it.

I'll see if I can find the thread, didn't know it had been discussed on the other forum or here.

Just checked, on scuderia parts the cost is around $550 USD for the factory TO bearing.

That's very attractive!

Here they have the clutch housing for a $1000 less than above:

How much extra work is it to swap the clutch housing? Seems like it would be worth it.

Sorry about the filter guys. Sprite PM the links and I'll fix them.

Just my 2 cents on sourcing this, I recently purchased my TOB from eurospares, bought it in GBP due to the woeful exchange rate and had it shipped to the US for free. Customs charged me $80 but i saved over $1,400 in total.

 

Hi-Tech also make uprated TOB's if you wanted to go that route, and clutches.

Now that is playing to win! Nice work!
