Edit: The repair requires the transmission to be removed from the car, but requires little disassembly beyond that. You need a circlip tool, a small flathead screwdriver (as a chisel), pliers, and ideally a few drifts that BMW sells (I used sockets as it wasn't convenient to wait for the drifts).

Update: the 5th gear detent thing seems to have pretty much gone back to normal. On cold days, it still sticks but I can deal with it. I'm not loving the feel of the new clutch at all. I guess I got used to the heavy feel of the old one. Maybe I'll get used to this.
In true e36 M3 fashion, I now have some sort of shimmy in the steering. It's always something. Good thing the car is still so wonderful to drive. |
