Got a 535i clutch on saturday which im mating to e34 535i flywheel
but i have had to enlarge the 3 holes on the pressure plate to accept the 3 studs on the flywheel.Also have a e32 730i flywheel which is same part no as E34 one and that also would,nt accept the studs. Has anyone else had to do this and if so did you have any probs when clutch was fitted.

I bought an E28 M535i flywheel for mine but I didn't end up using the E34 clutch - got an E28 one as it wouldn't fit.

The holes are smaller but there are other differences.
An E34 M30 clutch won't fit on an E28 M30 flywheel, not sure about the other way round though, might be ok ? :?
