In Reply to: Cost of clutch posted by msn787 on March 09, 2001 at 14:36:33:

My clutch went at 11,700 miles. Replaced by my dealer at no charge to me. You should expect the same. Under no circumstances should you have to pay for a clutch repair, as it would set a dangerous precedent. Clutch failures seem to be too common for this torque monster. Search this board, and www.bmwm5.com discussion board for others who have had similar issues.

If this happens to enough of us, BMW will have no choice but to order a recall, or at least replace the clutch with something stronger. So far, they have been putting in the same as the original.
