Hi,

Sorry for writing in English, I only study here in NL.

I have a quite specific question and really hope to get an anwser here

I have a 2003 330d family sleeper Touring.







The car has been remapped at Hartog Tuning in NL few months ago.



According to Gtech which obviously can be wrong by some % ; it has 272PS and around 595NM.

40 - 220 kmh vid from today ---> http://picapic.eu/video003.3gp

It is a rather strong custom program that I am very satisifed about. The only problem is that any further developments or even hard driving from low rews at this point is limited by the flywheel.

Because of the to high NM the flywheel causes the car to go into turbulences. I know that a reasonable solution would be just to cut off some of the NM but it would be just too easy.

Does anybody know if the new 330 or 530 models have somehow "stronger" flywheels and if it can be transplanted together with the clutch into E46 M57TU. I tried to make an reserach on that but unfortunatelly without any results.

Since it does not cost 99E to buy, I would like to inform myself in advance Maybe any Tuners offer flywheels for 330d ?

I hope somebody had a simmilar problem here and tried to fight with it already ???

HI,

Don't know to much about dieselengines, but I know that some supercharged petrolengine use the flywheel and clutch combo from the M5.
UUC motorwerks sells these kits. http://www.uucmotorwerks.com/
Maybe you could call/mail them about you car.
My car has approx. 380 bhp and 465 Nm. I got a clutchmasters Fx300 clutch to hold the power.(stock flywheel).

Thanks for quick reactions. I will try to get sth from those sources.

Nice CAR!!,

That Power

Keep us updated with your reasearch please

Research finished...

I have not managed to find even a single company manufacturing or offering sport flywheels for 330d.

I know for 110% that the author of following websites knows the anwser:

http://antandpete.vault5.com
http://www.speedreligion.net/

.. but unfortunatelly he will not anwser any of your @

I have even contacted the company in UK that helped in building his d3 project by they also claimed not remembering anything.

In the end I decided to built my own custom clutch & solid flywheel in Poland. Within 2 weeks the car should be put together and running.

I have visited Essen yesterday and ordered Silverline X Coilovers so everything is going into right direction

I will keep you updated.
