clutch pedal spring removal for non-M3 e9x?

ndog14 · 09-28-2011, 01:45 PM

So I stumbled upon this DIY from the M3 forums and I was wondering if this spring is only found in the e9x m3s.

Thinking about doing it on my 07 328xi.

C'mon guys, no one has done this or tried to do this because it doesn't exist on our cars?

Is this spring found in the non-M3 E9X or not?

I highly doubt we have one.

I have been too busy all week to get underneath there to check for myself yet, but why would the M3 be so much different that a 3er underneath that panel.

Yes, there is a spring there.
I liked it there though because it kept the pedal firmer.

It's hard to explain how a clutch feels between cars, but would you feel there is a significant difference? Would you remove it if you did a lot of city driving?
