Group Buy CDV

Post by **srhutch** » Mon Aug 20, 2007 1:43 pm

Anybody in the UK interested in buying a modified CDV, think we only need 3 or 4 people to make this worth it.

The actual CDV is only $35, but carriage is $78.77

I'd probably be interested if we could get the carriage down!

Srhutch, are you sure about that!! I didn't pay anywhere near that for carriage of my CDV from Zeckhausen?

I've ordered one this morning, agreed the delivery @ $78.77 is a bit high, I've emailed them to clarify this. I'll let you know.

The carriage costs I got were direct from the webiste, they have advised we could order 5 without carriage going up.

Would you be wiling to add any requirements to your order if that was possible?

What does this do? Does it really make a difference to shifting?

And crucially ... is it easy to install?

I ordered mine this weekend and was quoted the same amount for P&P. It's the price on their website.

It's got to be worth seeing if they will combine the orders, or have you guys got money to throw away?

$78 for shipping

I enquired about one at the weekend but they were out of stock until Tuesday but if the shipping is $78 then I might be up for a group buy.

It's a 20-30 minute job but the car needs to be lifted to get at the slave cylinder. It is VERY worth it. My Z4M is WAY smoother....

I might be interested in this!

The cheapest option is to remove your CDV and bore the hole slightly wider. It takes 5 minutes and costs nothing, thats what a modified CDV is anyway! The other option is to throw it in the bin, that's what I did and I've never looked back!

Strange - I only paid $10 for shipping a year and a bit ago ...

Shunt · Post by **Shunt** » Tue Aug 21, 2007 12:23 pm

Sorry guys already had an email saying they'd shipped it. And I did toy with just throwing the original one away, but I'd like to keep my warranty etc.

Your warranty remains intact unless BMW can prove that a component failure was caused as a direct result of a modification that you've made, you don't even need to get your car serviced at a BMW dealership to keep the warranty but again the same rule applies. If you have a component failure and BMW can prove it was caused by poor servicing they won't replace it. The CDV is designed to give a smoother gear change by slowly applying clutch pressure when you release the pedal, it's not there to protect the drive train so I don't think you'll have any warranty problems by either modifying or binning it. Think of it as throwing away the ashtray because you don't have a need for it!
