Throw Out Bearing
Details
This Sachs clutch release or throw out bearing is included in our Sachs and Clutchmasters clutch kits.
If you are piecing together a performance disc and sport pressure plate, make sure you get one of these also.
Worn throw out bearings will produce noise when the clutch pedal is depressed.
This is also a cheap part to replace as preventative maintenance if you have your transmission off and the clutch has over 50k miles on it.
*Type 5 used when installing E30 325i clutch/flywheel on an M42 318 engine.
