BMW Performance Clutch Kits & Parts for BMW 5 Series E39 (1996-2003)

If you've ever bled the clutch hydraulic system on your BMW, you know how frustrating it can be. Designed with both DIY enthusiasts and professional technicians in mind, our clever tool simplifies one of the most notoriously annoying steps in clutch service.

Crafted from high-quality aluminum and finished in a durable black anodized coating, our clutch slave cylinder bleeder tool is built to last. Its function is simple: the adjustable piston rod applies controlled pressure directly to the clutch slave cylinder’s piston, compressing it and reducing its internal volume. By minimizing the amount of air trapped inside the cylinder, bleeding becomes faster, cleaner, and far more effective—no more endless pedal pumping or inconsistent clutch feel. The result is firm, consistent clutch pedal engagement and a smoother overall driving experience, all achieved with less time and effort underneath the car.

FEATURES & BENEFITS

Simplifies bleeding the BMW clutch hydraulic system by reducing trapped air in the slave cylinder Eliminates excessive pedal pumping and inconsistent clutch feel Helps achieve firm, consistent clutch pedal engagement Crafted from high-quality aluminum for strength and longevity Durable black anodized finish resists wear and corrosion Designed for both DIY enthusiasts and professional technicians PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT

Our Clutch Slave Cylinder Bleeder Tool was designed, engineered, tested, and quality inspected by our Research and Development team at Turner. Nothing but the highest level of precision and quality through leading-edge product development technology, including FARO laser scanning for reverse engineering and quality inspection, SolidWorks 3D CAD modeling, rapid prototyping utilizing our in-house 3D printer, and rigorous long-term product testing.

Adapt an N54 or N55 GS6-53BZ transmission to your M5x/S5x engine to unlock superior torque capacity and optimized gear ratios.

Engineered for the BMW enthusiast who demands more strength and better gear ratios, the Turner Motorsport Transmission Swap Flywheel Kit provides a direct solution for mating a modern N54 or N55 6-speed gearbox to your M20, M5X, or S5X engine. This kit bridges the gap between generations, allowing you to run a high-capacity GS6-53BZ transmission without the typical fabrication nightmares.

The technical core of this kit is our dual-geometry flywheel. By utilizing this specialized design, you can retain your engine-side stock starter while using the factory clutch and throw-out bearing from your donor transmission. This ensures a precise fit and a firm, factory-like shifting feel that can handle significantly more power than older 5-speed setups. To guarantee a fitment, we’ve included a precision drill guide for bellhousing alignment and a universal pilot bearing pin to simplify the installation process.

Features and benefits:

Compatible with the starter from your original motor.
Uses factory clutch and throwout bearing from the donor transmission (GS6-53BZ).
Comes with necessary tools and a provided drill guide to adapt the top transmission mounting holes.
