    clutch master cylinder sucks the ding-dong

    Anyone changed one before? What a bitch! The fitting on the end of is impossible to reach. I ended up dragging it into the car. I do not want to do one ever again.

    I have :) Pulled it up INTO the footwell area to get a line wrench on the bottom of it. I dont know how anyone gets to the nut on the bottom from under the car.

      If you have small hands you can get to it if you unbolt the control arm bushing and swing it out of the way.

      Still not a fun job though.

          As hard as it is to reach on a e30.... try doing the same job, but on a e34 535i.

          Absolutely worst idea BMW ever had.

                Probably because your car is a piece of shit.

                    I've replaced a clutch master cylinder twice. On my car, I pulled it inside to get the wrench on the fitting. On my gf's car, my little brother was accually able to reach it from under the car. He wasn't having too much though.

                    I don't want to do it ever again.
