How many spacers on the BMS clutch stop on the G87?

BroDoze · 05-06-2024, 07:30 AM

According to a picture on the BMS website, on 2019+ BMWs, you’re supposed to cut that first pointy nub off?
Yet that tidbit isn’t in the instructions that I can see.

Also, how many spacers for a safe install? Are all (4?) spacers recommended on the G87?

I remember on my 135i, I had to remove one spacer (couldn’t run all spacers) because the clutch wasn’t fully disengaging (very bad for clutch and synchros.)

If you check the Burger site, it describes cutting off the nub:

Also there is a big thread here, seems like a few people have taken off one disc:

I haven't had time to install mine yet, looking forward to trying it out.

How did it go? I just got the BMS Clutch Stop but can't decide how many spacers to use. This piece looks filmsy as hell so I'm assuming its only going on once before it breaks.

I don't have my G87 yet. And it kind of is a one-time use item. They're pretty cheap though! Let us know how many you use and how it goes.

Putting mine on Friday along with CDV Delete.

I’ll be taking 1 spacer off and running 3.
