Heavy Clutch - E60 525D Touring

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   I have heard that the clutch on the latest model 525D Touring (Manual box - obviously!!) is unacceptably heavy/fierce making it almost impossible to drive smoothly in traffic - much "worse" than E39 model diesels. 
Has anybody any experience or comment. I had been thinking of one of these, or a 530D, as a replacement for my aging 523i Touring.
