I installed clutch disc n plate on a defender 2007 now the clutch doesn't work, the pedal is normal but when u start the car example it on on 1st gear and u depress the clutch the car just moves like the clutch isn't there, but the pedal seems to be normal, what could cause this? Really need your help please. Thanks

It is, I think the clutch disc might be backwards, I just read "how to install a disc n plate" and it says if it's backwards it will cause the the gear to not disengage although I am quite sure it's fitted correctly I will have to take it out again to make sure. If u have any other tips I will be grateful. Thanks.
