CDV Removal, do we have one? Review? 6MT F8x

mitch32 · 11-17-2023, 12:11 PM

I searched the forums cannot find anything on CDV on our chassis. I believe we do have one but has anyone done the mod on F8x reading this post and can comment on if it is worth the effort?

You are correct. We absolutely do have one.

I replaced mine with the E9X slave cylinder. You’ll understand from the above thread.
I can’t say I noticed an incredible difference, but many people have. It was also a while ago, so I may have just forgotten about the shift feel beforehand.

Didn’t search hard enough. There’s more than 1 write up about the diy to remove it. Yes it’s worth it. Yes it’s easy

Had mine done at Driven SD (in San Diego), it’s subtle, not game changing.
