Hi Everyone,

Looks like we found a clutch that works perfectly from PTB. More testing is being done but there is a group buy set up.

Do you have any tips on the installation? We've just fitted one after a dealer installed a Clutchmaster kit, which was terrible. Now suspecting that the dealer screwed up the original installation as the new PTB-R kit is behaving in a similar fashion.

The PTB install supposed to be on the short side, should be marketed with blue. Don’t forget to reset the springs if your dropping the trany again

5 successful installs, biggest tip would be not going to BMW dealer, go to a shop that specializes in racing and modding, preferable bmw or euro.

I installed CM on long and short and got 3 clutches which were consistent in one thing… failing

All companies mark the setting, there is no special way to install the clutch other than that.

Update: please make sure you run under 700TQ which is now the found limit of above set up.

To push more you need: both ceramic and upgraded pressure plate which is a slight added cost, still the only working alternative to stock
