Are LWF ring gears steel or aluminum? I can't imagine a aluminum ring gear would last very long. Trying to figure out what the coupe has for a flywheel. A magnet is sticking to ring gear from the window on the side. Car sure feels like it has a LWF.

My LWF ring is steel.

Thanks Rob. Means I am on the right track thinking this is a LWF. I drove your cab and it seemed the same as my car. That had a DMF back in 2012 right?

Rocket Rob

Yes, my cab has a DMF.

Does the level of corrosion on your starter ring gear look anything like that on your Motronic timing ring?



Or do they look different?

More like the second pic. It looks darker like old grease residue. Still a little rusty looking. I would post a pic but....iPhone.
