This looks like the money, 228mm

88 3082 999 618 | 415nm organic 480nm special organic 530nm sinter

http://mercedes-190.co.uk/topic/218059/1/ references using the 618 on a benz. He says that the throwout needs to be 20mm longer, which correlates somewhat with this post re bmw http://forums.bimmerforums.com/forum/showthread.php?1244801-228mm-m20-clutch

And now I see the same problem as the 745. The BMW flywheels are all flush mounted. Interestingly enough I measured the 228mm and the 215mm clutch exhibit the same height difference as listed in that bimmer forums ~3.7mm diff.

Shows pictures of the g60 flywheel up close. Boy does that look similar!

Turns out I have a place around the corner from work that specializes in clutch parts. http://www.clutchspecialty.com/ We'll see what we come up with.


RE: om603 clutch options. - winmutt - 07-30-2014

This place is down in the ghetto, I know because I used to live ~4 blocks away. Walk in and its to old white hairs running the place, owner comes out and start shootin the shit. You just cant get service like this on ebay. He is going to custom build 6 puck sinter and move the pivot points on the clutch for $250. Best part is that both of them live right around the corner from me out in the burbs and both are benz guys. It's not the -618 solution but the price is unbeatable and I think it will hold. More clamping and sinter should do the job for me.

Is this going to be an unsprung disc?

It is a sprung 6 puck sinter and its in and holding. Definitely needs breaking in but is survivable. Now to drive like a little old lady for the next month.

Cool. I'd love to hear your driving impressions once you feel like it's broken in.

I love shops like that, bring a case of beer with your parts & hang out for a bit
