How to know flywheel type
« on: February 10, 2013, 12:29:14 PM »
Seems that time for clutch service will come soon on my E30 89' m42.
To order right parts its good to know which flywheel do I have - single or dual mass.
Does anybody know - is it present any change to know it without disassembling?
Thanks.

If you have air conditioning I would think you have the dual mass flywheel.

- No A/C. But I was making a SWAP from M10 and not sure that my current engine at "original" car was with or without.
