This is the OEM replacement clutch kit for 6-speed E39 540i. A clutch kit includes all of the components of the clutch assembly - disc, pressure plate, and throw-bearing (release bearing).

This clutch is from Sachs, the original supplier to BMW for this part. The performance, engagement, release, and lifespan will be identical to a new BMW clutch. This OEM clutch will deliver original levels of smoothness and grip - exactly the characteristics you want in a clutch used on the street.

This clutch uses components that are partially made from recycled materials. This is known as a remanufactured or rebuilt kit, and is a common practice with organic clutch materials. Even a clutch purchased from BMW directly may also be remanufactured. Note that this does not mean it's a greasy, worn-out used part! It only means that the organic material in the clutch disc, and possibly other components, have come from a recycled source. Using recycled materials lowers the overall product cost and is better for the environment. Sachs stands behind the part with a two year warranty.

Additional items should also be replaced as part of the "while you're in there" work. This includes, but is not limited to, exhaust gaskets, transmission seals and bushings, driveshaft mounts, pilot bearing, and the rear main seal. In addition, the condition of the flywheel will be unknown until exposed with the clutch removed. Some flywheels may be resurfaced, however, it's not guaranteed. In the case of dual-mass flywheels, the typical replacement interval is every other clutch change (but sometimes sooner). Ordering the basic clutch kit is usually first on a long list of parts to replace at the same time.

This is an OEM 540i clutch kit manufactured by LuK - the original supplier to BMW for this part, as well as many other driveline components. As the OEM it meets all of BMW's original design, fitment, and performance requirements and is TUV approved. OEM parts are the best alternative to more expensive Original BMW parts because they are virtually identical without the inflated price tag. This part has a two year warranty.

This kit replaces BMW part numbers 21 21 7 528 209, 21217515145, 21217503504, 21217500067, 21211223607.
