Description
The plates can transmit a very high torque by rubbing against each other. Engaging with an inner and outer clutch basket, they perform this task. Their role in torque transmission is significant.
Why is my BMW X5 jerking or shuddering during acceleration?
Jerking or shuddering, especially under load or during low-speed turns, is a classic symptom of worn friction plates in the ATC500 or ATC700 transfer case. When the plates lose their grip, they slip and grab inconsistently, leading to that uncomfortable hesitation.
Will this kit fit my BMW ATC500 or ATC700 transfer case?
Yes, this friction and steel plate kit is specifically engineered for the BMW ATC500 (typically found in the X5 E53) and the ATC700 (found in the X5 E70 and X6 E71). It includes the necessary components to refresh the internal clutch pack.
Do I really need to replace both the friction and the steel plates?
Absolutely. While the friction plates wear down, the steel plates often suffer from heat spots, warping, or glazing. Installing new friction plates against old, damaged steel plates will lead to premature failure and poor torque transmission.
How do these plates manage high torque in my 4×4 system?
These plates work by engaging with the inner and outer clutch baskets. When the transfer case actuator applies pressure, the friction between these plates allows the unit to distribute specific amounts of torque between the front and rear axles.
What are the warning signs that my transfer case clutch pack is failing?
Look out for the ‘4×4’ or DSC warning light on your dashboard, a clicking sound from under the car after you turn off the engine, or a ‘binding’ sensation when performing tight maneuvers like parking.
