Product Information

Kit includes disc, pressure plate, release 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

Clutch Release bearing too small for transmission snout and measurably smaller than INA.
The SACHS clutch release bearing supplied in this kit measured 39.10mm ID and was too small to fit around the transmission snout for our 2005 BMW X3 3.0 6 speed. I subsequently purchased INA 21517521360 and this fit nicely and had an ID of 40.61mm .

Good kit for 2003 330xi
My first clutch kit ordered, the pressure plate face came delivered with some damage due to packaging between clutch. but they sent me a new replacement kit and now it’s all good. Note the Kit comes with both types of pilot bearings and one throw out bearing. Which my new luk OE flywheel already has one installed. This clutch kit centering tool does not allow pressure plate to bolt on due to the length of the spline section being too long comes in contact with shipping plate which this Shipping plate cannot be removed until installation. I didn’t have a smaller clutch center tool. so I modified the one provided by cutting the top spline section about 1/2” off so the end of the center tool would allow pressure plate bolt up and removal of shipping plate after setting clutch. New clutch is in and runs like a new car now. E46 330xi 2003

05 330xi
My clutch was very lightly slipping, bought this and had it installed before selling my 6 speed e46 330xi so the next owner could enjoy the car as much as I did! Drove super well while I had it.
