    I recently have been having issues with vibrations while idling, it vibrates sometimes when the RPSs fluctuate and sometimes when they are still. There are no codes so the only thing I can think of would be engine mounts but the previous owner said he replaced them recently and they don't look...

    I’ve battled my clutch for so long now. I had the issue of not being able to reinstall the trans after doing clutch. I upgraded to a twin disk clutch by hopwood motorsport. Really good clutch as far as parts used. Now I’m having an issue where I’m letting out the clutch and giving gas. If I give...

    Hey guys. I’m pretty sure I know the answer to this, but as the title says that’s what my car does. Today I finished installing some headers and after finishing some fun driving I parked the car up and heard a knocking noise. When I would press the clutch in, it would go away and vice versa...

    New to the forums, but my 2003 325xi is hard to shift into gear. The clutch is very stiff and only changes gears when the car is off but when the car is on the gears grind when trying to shift into gear but goes into reverse very easily when the car is off or on. What happened was I was driving...

    Hello, I recently swapped a Getrag 5spd into my 99 328i from a working 02 325ci, and I transferred pretty much all the parts directly over besides some bolts and a new Chasebays clutch line. The car runs, drives and shifts fine, but if I put the clutch too far in it makes a constant clunking...

    Plan on replacing clutch/flywheel on an 03 330xi 6mt. The production date is 05/2003, if that even matters. My googles have lead me to some kits for the xi but I’m not sure whether or not they’ll fit as it’s a non-M 6-speed, obviously not standard for an xi. Basically I would like to know if the...

    Hello, I have a 2003 Bmw 325i and just attempted my first ever clutch job. I got everything bolted up as it should but no start. The engine is seemingly seized. car was ruining and driving before I took it apart. I originally thought the starter was causing the the flywheel to seize up. I took...

    I have to do a clutch replacement on a 323CI and I was wondering if there were different clutches for ZF and Getrag transmissions before I ordered one. The car has the factory Getrag and I'm considering doing a ZF swap later. Are they the same or does the entire clutch/flywheel need changed too?

    Hi, so yesterday I was driving my e46 320d facelift, manual, and I was waiting on a red light, the light turned green, I accelerated quick and wanted to shift to second, and I either missed it or the car broke on me, I thought I broke the transmission because I couldn't shift. Stopped on the...

    i just recently m54b30 swapped my 325i and installed a single mass flywheel with a stage 1 clutch and used my stock pressure plate, my input shaft is 21 spline so all the b30 clutches are 10 spline so i needed to use a e46 XI (awd) clutch to get the right size clutch and right amount of splines...

    Hey, I hope to get some answers regarding my gearbox. I recently bought a E46 320i (2.2 170hp) with a 5 speed Manuel transmission. This car has only done 117K (kilometers) 73K (miles). I have noticed that the gearbox makes this "clunking" noise when I press the clutch both in and out fast, or...

    Hi everyone. Car is a 2003 330d. I'm new here, but was wondering if I could get some help with identifying what the issue might be with the below problem.

    So I have a e46 manual which I recently changed the engine on. I reused the old gear box, clutch and flywheel as these were replaced around 6 months ago. When I installed the new engine the clutch biting point was almost at the bottom of the pedal travel and after about a week of driving the...

    I have a m54b25 na-t making around 400 crank. I am pairing this to an Getrag 420g which I just picked up and I need to order a clutch and flywheel. I know the 420g uses a different spline than the 250g that originally comes one the m54. I am thinking to use the m54 flywheel and pressure plate...
