Ok just went to his site. Im going to buy one. It seems like it could be switched if i have a tranny problem . I wonder how hard this is. Can he send specific DIY instructions. Im probably better off going to a transmition shop though.

Mind you I just reviewed these carefully. They are E39 instructions. I have no knowledge of the older 5er so I do not know if they apply.

That's idiotic idea!! :'( I have never heard anything like that in Europe. Iceman? I have to say that I have nt experienced anything what might indicate that my e60 have that, but I have to check. Certainly when I lift my foot from clutch it engage immediately, no any hesitation!

Yea i realized that too. I read both instrutions and theyh say the brake/clutch fluid is under the microfilter. Weird Place. So i assume the E39 directions sohuld work or atlest be similar.

OK. In helping out Zipper regarding the Nanny Valve, I have hi-jacked my own thread. Has anyone experienced a change in the feel of the gear box. (not the clutch uptake).

Thanks.
