Exedy OE 2002-2008 1.6 Mini Cooper L4 Clutch Kit

Description

BMK1001FW

This kit contains: solid flywheel, pressure plate, clutch disc, throw-out bearing and flywheel mounting bolts. ***This solid flywheel replaces the OE dual mass flywheel***

This dual mass flywheel conversion kit replaces the stock dual mass setup in your 6 speed with the more reliable single mass setup.

Dual mass flywheels allow for fluid-feeling clutch engagements and offer a more luxurious feel than single-mass flywheels. However, with these benefits come significant drawbacks. Why convert from a dual-mass flywheel to a single-mass flywheel?

• Cost: Dual-mass flywheels are expensive, with the cost of replacement often times is double or triple than that of converting to a single-mass flywheel.
• Serviceability: Single-mass flywheels can be resurfaced, eliminating the need to replace with the next clutch service. – something that is not recommended with dual-mass flywheels, as they contain a rubber section that is more failure-prone in high mileage application.
• Simplicity: Single-mass flywheels lack the complexity of dual-mass flywheels, making them inherently more reliable. Dual-mass flywheels contain a rubber damper or hub that will, like all rubber components, wear out with time.
• Driveability: Exedy conversion kit has been designed to maintain nearly identical clutch and flywheel weight, ideal for keeping the clutch quiet and easy to drive.
