Sachs Performance Uprated Clutch Kit (Organic) for BMW 1 Series 125i E82/E88 – Stage 1 Fast Road Heavy Duty Pressure Plate & Organic Disc – Manual Gearbox, OE Flywheel Compatible – Coupe/Convertible Clutch Upgrade Replacement

Uprated clutch upgrade for BMW 1 Series 125i E82 and E88

Looking for a stronger, sharper driveline solution for your 125i without ruining day-to-day comfort? This genuine Sachs uprated clutch set pairs a heavy-duty pressure cover with an organic lined drive plate to give your BMW the extra holding power it needs on fast road builds and tuned setups, while keeping engagement smooth and civil for daily use.

This direct-replacement assembly fits in place of the factory unit and works with your existing OE flywheel or a new genuine replacement. It is the ideal choice for spirited driving, remapped cars and reliability-focused performance builds where a stock clutch starts to slip.

• Higher torque capacity to cope with performance tuning and hard use
• Organic lining for progressive bite and smooth pull-away on the road
• Increased clamp load for confident power delivery through the manual gearbox
• Excellent heat resistance for consistent performance on fast road and occasional track days
• OEM-quality construction from Sachs for durability and fitment confidence
• Bolt-on installation that retains factory comfort and refinement

What you get

• Uprated clutch pressure cover
• Organic friction plate
