USED - E39 540 UUC Lightweight Flywheel

I decided to go back to an OEM setup and I have removed my UUC cera-metallic clutch and UUC lightweight flywheel. The flywheel has about 20K miles on it. You can also get a new flywheel contact surface from UUC for about $70.

This is the flywheel only and does not include any clutch parts.

What do you mean?

You said you went back to stock. Why did you dislike the lwfw?

The performance setup was very crude and harsh. The only time it came into play would be under a hard launch or extreme spirited driving. Both of which put extreme wear on my car. Do that a few times and you realize that all you are doing is putting a lot of stress on all your components and they will fail sooner that you would like.

When my clutch started slipping after 20k miles, I decided to go back to stock. Since 99% of my driving was not using the UUC setup as designed, I thought OEM would be the best fit for me. I feel like my car car is back to being a luxury sports sedan again instead of a hi-performance muscle car.

I am not in any position to keep replacing clutches every 20k miles or breaking a sub frame mount like my friend did on his M5. I have had both setups and I like the OEM setup best for 99% of the driving I do.

This is what I like about OEM over the performance setup:

• Quite - no more rattle and no more strange looks
• Smooth Engagement - no more chug-a-lug engagements at low RPM
• Cheaper - Paid $273 at AutoZone with lifetime warranty and install was $511 at my indy shop.
• Lighter Clutch Pedal - feels like butter.
• Last longer

Same experience with mine. I have gone back to OEM. The LWFW setup does work well under spirited driving, however.
