Product Information

228mm clutch set, comes with pressure plate, clutch disc, throwout bearing, pilot bearing, and clutch alignment tool

If your BMW's clutch has started to slip it will need to be replaced. Some owners will opt to simply replace the clutch disc but we always find it best to replace the entire clutch kit for the best service life and performance. We also recommend replacing the rear main seal.

FCP also recommends inspecting the flywheel for excessive wear. If the flywheel is worn we recommend replacing it at the same time as the clutch kit. This will ensure a long and reliable service life of your BMW's clutch.

Please note: This clutch kit is self adjusting. It historically included a shipping plate on the pressure plate. LuK may or may not be shipping the pressure plate with the shipping lock plate. Per LuK the shipping lock plate IS NOT required for proper installation of the clutch when new.

Transmission Clutch Kit

Clutch kits are made up of two main components, the clutch friction disc and the clutch pressure plate. Both of these components transfer torque from the flywheel to the transmission. There are several different types of manual transmission clutches in terms of operation but they all perform the same basic function.

Clutches are a pure wear item. In some cases you may have the option to replace a pressure plate or clutch disc separately but its always best to replace both at the same time along with other component such as the rear main seal, pilot bearing, release bearing, and shifter parts.

Transmission Clutch Kit Failure Symptoms
  • Slipping under acceleration
  • Engine revs freely but the vehicle does not accelerate
  • Difficulty shifting gears
  • Squeaking noises while the clutch pedal is pressed
  • Sticky or spongy clutch pedal feel when the clutch pedal is pressed
  • Burning smell from slipping clutch

Great for the price!
I have been running this on my car for 3 years now. I replaced the factory flywheel with another stock flywheel and pair it with this clutch kit. I've been clutch kicking it like crazy and its still holding up. I did accidently decompress the pressure plate so... don't do that.. and If you do... Here is a link to a video that shows how to reset it yourself. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a_5nKBhpgxM

Replacement Clutch
Fit perfectly & works great! One thing to note is that the 6 Mounting Bolts are not included in the kit. They have a patchlock on them, so they need to be replaced. Don't forget to order.

Questions & Answers

Ask a question
Question Posted by Andrew
New to replacing transmission parts. What fly wheel pairs up with this clutch kit. Just looking for an OEM feel for everyday driving and maybe some back roads.
Answer (Posted by FCP Euro Products Team)
PN 21217512474 would be required.
Question Posted by Orion
Is this for a dual or single mass flywheel
Answer (Posted by FCP Euro Products Team)
This is for a dual-mass flywheel. Typically clutch discs for single-mass flywheels are sprung to prevent chattering. For a dual mass setup, that damping effect is performed by the flywheel.
Question Posted by a customer
Is this an 240mm clutch kit need it for my lightweight flywheel
Answer (Posted by FCP Euro Products Team)
This is a 228mm clutch set.
Question Posted by a customer
Does this include the bolts to secure the pressure plate to the flywheel?
Answer (Posted by FCP Euro Products Team)
No. The kit comes with pressure plate, clutch disc, throwout bearing, pilot bearing, and clutch alignment tool.
Question Posted by Tyrell
Does this include the pilot bearing?
Answer (Posted by FCP Euro Products Team)
Yes, the pilot bearing is included.
Question Posted by a customer
I'm looking for a NON SAC clutch set to be used with a DMF It looks like this is a SAC
Answer (Posted by FCP Euro Products Team)
This is an OE self adjusting clutch kit. Unfortunately, there isn't a non SAC clutch available at this time to run in conjunction with the OE DMF. Generally speaking to avoid the SAC you have to convert the flywheel as well. I recommend looking at the Valeo conversion kit (p/n 52401225) for OE like performance and feel.
