The BM9 - HDSS kit from ACT combines the most popular heavy - duty pressure plate and street disc. ACT's heavy - duty pressure plates feature an exclusive diaphragm design. This design boosts the clamp load, reduces deflection, and extends the clutch life. All diaphragms go through a four - stage heat - treating process for top - notch performance. The pressure plates have precision cover stampings for rigidity and consistency. ACT's performance street discs are made of premium organic materials with high copper content, which helps with better heat transfer. They also have a steel - backed lining for greater burst strength and durability. These discs have less marcel, enabling faster shift actions to match the powerful ACT pressure plates, offering enhanced strength and reliability. This clutch kit fits the 2001 - 2006 BMW M3 Base model.
Using your ACT clutch kit is straightforward. First, make sure your vehicle is turned off and on a stable surface. When installing the kit, follow the included instructions carefully. After installation, take it for a short test drive to get used to the new clutch feel. Remember, don't put too much stress on the clutch right away. During daily driving, avoid riding the clutch to prevent unnecessary wear. For maintenance, regularly check the clutch fluid level and the condition of the pressure plate and disc. If you notice any strange noises or a change in how the clutch feels, it's a good idea to have it inspected by a professional.
