How to Replace the Clutch on a BMW X5?

Model: BMW X5 E53 - Years 1999-2006
Part: Clutch

To replace the clutch on a BMW 5 Series, lift the vehicle and remove the bolts securing the exhaust pipes, which are located along the entire underside of the car. After removing the pipes, you will need to take off the protective panels located under the transmission. This will require removing it from its housing by loosening the mounting bolts and disconnecting it from other components. Removing it will provide access to the clutch: by loosening the bolts and its central pin, the discs that make it up can be removed and replaced.
