Clutch wont engage any gear - Maybe Throwout bearing?
New to this forums but not bmws!
Just looking to spitball ideas here before i throw a ton of parts at the problem. I work on cars, last one was a miata i rebuilt top down. My first ever car was a 94 V8 530i, and so i wanted to get back to bmw. Car has 140k miles. 2007 e92 model. i recently got the car and don't have much on maintence history. Was driving it around to get a feel of what needed to be worked on. The After two hours the clutch refused to get into any gears. ABS light is on, the break fluid is dark AF and for sure has to be replaced. I learned clutch uses the same fluid. When i start the car there is an exceptional grinding noise with the pedal down on the clutch. I wouldnt say it goes to the floor but there isnt much resistance either. The brake pedal is hard to push down as well. I noticed when i stopped (failed in my drive way thank god) that there was liquid on the pavement. Initially thought it was a fluid leak. But its completely dissappeared which makes me think it was water. odd part is it was under where the front of the car was sitting. My thought is throwout bearing went bad. But as ive never worked on a car that shares its brake and clutch system I wanted to get some other thoughts here. Thanks for your guys input/help! Glad to be here. Just wish I got to drive it more before it became another project! |
