Uh oh - clutch just slipped at 143,000 kms
Hi folks,
looks like I'm in the market for a replacement clutch for our 2010 sDrive 2.0. Being a diesel I understand they're dual mass and here in Australia that usually translates to $$$ - in addition to being a Beemer. Would have to be at least $2,500AUD at our local friendly BMW service centre. I'm looking to source the part and have looked at Pelican but I can't register an X1 there - I'm guessing they've lumped it in with the 3 series??? How would I find the correct part #? Also - there are plenty of Exedy clutch kits available. I have an Exedy dual mass clutch in our Pathfinder and so far so good. Any comments on non-genuine clutches for the X1? Finally - roughly how long should it take to be installed? I'm hoping not to be given a BS quote by my mechanic (I do trust him but you can't be too careful...). Any help will be greatly appreciated. Cheers and thanks from Sydney, Dave |

I've got the 14 S28i with 8 speed auto, but clutches can sometimes be saved by making sure the clutch release linkage has a little free play, so no slight opening force.
You might be an expert and this tip is like "no sh*t sherlock", so your mileage will vary. I find that getting the actual BMW part number, and running that in Google shopping, ideas will spill like mad. |

As for Google shopping... so far I've had only good fortunes! Was just surprised that Pelican doesn't list the X1 in my year! Cheers and thanks - Dave |

Update...
Just called BMW parts - they quoted the following: - Clutch kit ~ $1,200 - DMF ~ $2,750 Looks like I'm going for an Exedy kit with DMF for around AUD$1,400 to be fitted by my local mechanic. Fingers crossed... Cheers, David Last edited by deldridg; 08-27-2018 at 02:26 AM.. Reason: Wanted to update the update |
