[QUOTE="e39touring, post: 629477, member: 13212"] On my way to my wife's kampung, play2 with some Jap's machine, cooked my clutch. (this Happened before puasa month) I can feel the clutch was not biting, and already informed my mech about it. But... I think I should change mech Luckily I broke down near this village workshop (still had to be towed, thanks to Etiqa). I had done some "emergency" work before at this workshop. The mechanic is brilliant with mechanical stuff. Electronic thing cannot do as he does not have the tools la. Anyway, finding the clutch replacement for an e39 was a real experience I can tell you that. Because I need to change the whole complete set, not just the clutch plate. As the whole damn thing was roasted/barbecued literally!! It even had the the charcoal smell I tell ya!!! It was also the Self-adjusting Clutch (SAC) that requires special tool for installation. The workshop was quoted nearly RM3k for the part alone, so I decided to find it myself. Got one shipped in by Suan Huat within a week for RM900:top: happy. Part: RM900 Labour: RM150 :love: Kereta kena tinggal kat kampung for 18days: Priceless [/QUOTE]
