Clutch Is Gone :(

[BlantonG13]

Clutch in my 318i apparently blew last night...anyone have any ideas how much it would cost to get replaced at the Stealership?

[Speedy-325is]

if u have to ask.....you shouldnt be going to the dealership to fix it.

probably well over $500. + labor

[bimmerfan620]

my clutch is in good shape, it's a stock from the dealer. It's from a 325i, i'll sell it to you for $100, with only 5,000 miles on it. I've got a C/F DF. let me know if your interested.

up here i called and they said 1000

[BlantonG13]

Anyone have any info on the clutch kit on Bavauto? It seems like a pretty good kit at a pretty good price...

[3serbmdubya]

go to www.stopshopanddrive.com
they have a very nice sachs clutch kit which i have in my car.... amazing kit

[Speedy-325is]

sachs....and only sachs clutch parts. nothing but the best.

[bimmerfan620]

sachs didn't last for crap on my 3000GT when I put a brand new one in. 3 hard launches and it was gone.

Just to be curious, how many miles do you have on your Bimmer Blanton? I have a 1998 328i with 80K and I was just wondering when I could expect clutch problems...thanks

My first bimmer 1995 318i- totaled it at 162K. Still had original clutch with slight slippage when really launching it. So it really depends on the type of driver..I would say between 130-160K mi tho..

[robbins6103]

sweet, so I have awhile....hopefully.

[Cruzin 323is]

if u know how to drive stick, then u shouldn't need to get a new clutch... unless previous owner didn't know how to drive!!

I've paid my BMW dealer 1150 USD for my e36 325 last summer

[///M Power]

wow 1150. SHIT!

Just go to your local badass car modification shiopp that you trust and get a good clutch for half the price. Does ACT make anythign 6 bolt or 4 bolt for BMW's?
