Recommended bed in for paddle iirc is easy driving for 500 miles - then use normally

Assume you faced off the old pressure plate and flywheel? Not sure you can wear a pressure plate out per say, as long as the springs aren't snapped then should hold same clamping force? Unless they can go 'soft' but never heard of it.

Pressure plate had the marks of release bearing. Flywheel and pressure plate where faced yes. 500 miles, I think I am almost there. Will make a few more miles today to see if it goes better and then put file with more mm3
