Hi all

the clutch on my 1995 M5 Touring has given up the ghost - the pedal now only has resistance for the bottom third, and it is impossible to engage any gears.

Is this a fluid leak/seals problem with either a master or slave cylinder?

Does anyone know of a good M-Power specialist reasonably close to SW London - Birds in Uxbridge, perhaps?

Thanks for any advice/help you might have.

Cheers
Sean

It could be the release bearing or spring, but either way you will probably need a new clutch (just hope you don't need the flywheel as well which mine did).

I haven't used any down south, but hear Munich Legends, Bexley Motor Works and Birds are all decent - and cheaper than BMW stealers!
