It's correct if you've copied it down right.
Ignore the initial part of it and the relevant section is the 5A309132.
Somewhere on the site is a post that explains the makeup of the initial section - model year, transmission, sale region. However, if your car is manual, that would appear to be in the range that Winger quoted.
If you're having clutch problems, look on the previous page to print out all of the T.S.B. text to show your dealer should he prove to be recalcitrant.
Let us know how you get on.

My clutch need replaced at 15,000 miles after the car being used on a beach. It transpires that the first batch of cars are known (according to my LR machanic) to have clutches that are too soft and not fit for the job. I had to fight to get this work done and even then they still cocked it up. Make sure they order the bolts to go with it!!!

Good news and fingers crossed that they've changed all the necessary bits.

Rolling with laughter

Shortly after I bought my discovery 3 I was reversing a stock box with high ratio selected and the clutch started to stink like billyho. I thought that I had really done it in but luckily it has lasted and I have now clocked up 29500 miles. It states in the owners manual to select low ratio for reversing a trailer and as I do quite a bit of towing I have followed this suggestion and no further problems. A friend of mine took delivery of a new disco commercial in September and his clutch lasted 3 DAYS!!!!

Unnecessary quote removed
Sorry to hear of your problem. I replaced my Disco 3 before anything dramatic happened and went for an automatic as I did not trust the clutch to last in the last Disco. The friend I mentioned before had his changed but it lasted only 3 weeks so he has also sold his Disco commercial and bought a BMw.

I presume the warranty would still apply to the replaced part ?

how long a warranty do you get on a clutch and flywheel?
