Remove the gearbox (see section «Transmission»: BMW 242/4, Getrag 262/8 or Getrag 265/6).
With the clutch installed on the vehicle, make sure that the deviation from the flatness of the ends of the pressure spring petals does not exceed the maximum allowable value. Lock the flywheel with lock 6013 (on models «518» And «520») or 7007 (on models «525» And «528»).
Gradually and evenly loosen the bolts securing the clutch cover to the flywheel.
Remove the clutch cover assembly with pressure plate. This releases the clutch disc.
