What's Included

This is a genuine BMW clutch release bearing, part number 21 51 2 226 729. The number stamped on the part is 21512226729; BMW's catalog files it under the short number 2226729. You will find it on our Clutch & Flywheel shelf, under Clutch operator with lever. It supersedes the older number 2225619, so a part carrying that number is the same part.

It fits the E36 sedan, coupe and convertible (M3, 1995–1999), with the S50 or S52 engines.

BMW draws it on 10 diagrams, among them Clutch (21_0008) and Clutch (21_0011). It weighs about 185 g (0.4 lb). It also comes in BMW kits Set Rmfd-clutch parts asbestos-free (2226428) and Set Rmfd-clutch parts asbestos-free (2226854) and 2 more.

We have not had one on the shelf yet. Request it and we will tell you when one comes off a car.
