Product Information
Replace when installing new clutch
Per BMW, it is highly recommended that the throw out bearing should be replaced while installing a new clutch kit. This clutch release bearing is designed to work with 1861837132
A clutch release bearing also known as a throw-out bearing is an essential part of a manual transmission’s clutch system. It enables the smooth engagement and disengagement of the clutch by allowing the clutch pedal’s force to be transferred to the clutch pressure plate. When the clutch pedal is pressed, the release bearing pushes against the pressure plate, disengaging the clutch and allowing you to shift gears.
Clutch Release Bearing Failure Symptoms- Clutch Slippage: In severe cases, a failing release bearing can contribute to clutch slippage, where the clutch does not fully engage, causing a loss of power transmission and difficulty accelerating
- Difficulty Shifting Gears: If the bearing is worn, it may not fully disengage the clutch, making it harder to shift gears smoothly and increasing the likelihood of grinding between gears
- Noises When Depressing the Clutch Pedal: A failing release bearing often produces squealing, chirping, or grinding noises when the clutch pedal is pressed. These sounds may reduce or disappear when the pedal is released
About Sachs
ZF Sachs AG, also known as Fichtel & Sachs was founded in Schweinfurt in 1895 and was a well-known German family business. At its last point as an independent company, the company name was Fichtel & Sachs AG. In 1997, the automotive supplier was taken over by Mannesmann and renamed Mannesmann Sachs AG. As of 2001, Sachs belonged to ZF Friedrichshafen as a subsidiary company ZF Sachs AG. In 2011, ZF Sachs, like other Group subsidiaries, was legally merged with ZF Friedrichshafen AG and the independent business units integrated into the ZF divisions. Sachs has since become a brand of ZF Friedrichshafen AG.
Sachs is a trusted brand of the ZF family, which includes Lemforder, TRW, Boge, Stabilus, ZF parts and Sachs Performance. All divisions are well respected within their automotive specialty as they are all OEMs (original equipment manufacturers) to car brands like Audi, Porsche, BMW, Volvo and more. Sachs specializes in shock absorbers, struts and clutches, with FCP Euro stocking many solutions based on your needs, be it an OE replacement or a higher performance clutch, shock or strut. All Sachs parts are built to meet or exceed the OEM specifications, this provides confidence and value when choosing Sachs over a Genuine part.
