Local SF Bay Area Flywheel Resurfacing

F80Mmm · 10-23-2014, 06:21 PM

Does anyone know any local SF Bay Area shops that will resurface our OEM DMFW for an e90 335i? I'm thinking of going the resurface route rather than forking out ~$600 for a new one. Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

I've done a few for VW/Audi applications, it's a major PITA unless you build a jig for that specific flywheel in order to hold the top plate level and keep it from rotating back and forth.

Are you sure that the internals are in good condition? Frequently by the time you're ready to do a clutch, the rubber inside is worn out and the flywheel should be replaced.

Is the friction surface actually worn down?

My car is at 56k miles, I'm just upgrading the clutch bc I'm FBO and its slipping when I run E85. I'm really not sure what condition its in, there's no other issues but I'm assuming there would be sooner or later.

Anyone else have any luck here? I haven't found anyone willing to resurface my OEM DMFW and I got quoted $750 for a new one, :/ yikes.
