Product Details

Clutch Masters is well-known for making strong clutch components for performance applications. This FX250 clutch kit is built for your 1997-2003 BMW 540i with the 4.4L engine. If you're looking to handle more power or just want a more robust clutch for your E39, this kit is a solid option.

This particular kit features a 267mm clutch disc, which is an upgrade over the stock size. This larger diameter helps spread the load over a bigger surface area, allowing it to handle more torque without slipping. The FX250 series is designed for a noticeable improvement in holding capacity while still being manageable for daily driving. It's a good balance for those who want better performance without making the clutch pedal too heavy or difficult to use in traffic. You'll get a more direct engagement feel compared to a worn-out stock clutch.

When installing a new clutch, it's always a good idea to inspect your flywheel for any hot spots or damage. If the flywheel is worn or warped, it's best to have it resurfaced or replaced to ensure proper clutch engagement and longevity. This kit includes the necessary components for a complete clutch replacement, giving you a fresh start for your drivetrain.
