Sachs Performance Organic Uprated Clutch Kit for BMW 5 Series 523i E60 E61 Manual - Stage 1 Fast Road Heavy Duty Clutch & Pressure Plate, Organic Disc - OE-Fit Direct Replacement (fits OE flywheel)

Sachs Performance Organic Clutch Upgrade for BMW 5 Series E60 E61 523i

Looking for a fast-road clutch that copes with added power while remaining smooth in traffic? This Sachs Performance organic kit is a direct replacement for the factory unit on BMW 5 Series E60 and E61 523i manual models. It pairs a strengthened cover with an organic lined, full-face disc for improved torque holding, crisp engagement and day-to-day drivability.

Designed for tuned street cars and spirited driving, this upgrade is ideal for remapped or lightly modified 523i builds that need extra bite without the harshness of a race paddle disc. It fits to the original flywheel or a new genuine unit, making installation straightforward and hassle-free.

Why choose this Sachs organic clutch

• Uprated clamp load for increased torque capacity compared to stock
• Organic lining for progressive, OE-like take-up and smooth pull-away
• Enhanced heat resistance for hard road use and fast A-road driving
• Excellent choice for daily-driven performance cars and fast-road builds
• Direct-fit solution for BMW 523i E60 E61 manual transmission vehicles

Street friendly performance

The organic compound provides a predictable pedal feel and consistent engagement, so you keep the comfort of a factory clutch with the strength demanded by power and torque increases from typical bolt-ons and software. Pedal effort may be slightly higher than stock due to the reinforced cover.

Fitment and compatibility

• BMW 5 Series 523i E60 and E61 - manual gearbox
• Installs on the standard flywheel or a new OE replacement
• Direct replacement for the original clutch assembly

Notes

This listing is for the organic version. If you require a motorsport-style paddle disc for higher torque builds, please see our other listings. Organic discs are recommended for road cars; they offer a smoother engagement than multi-puck options.
