Must be some bad luck I ordered it early Friday. Are you sure it actually shipped? or did they just process the number? I bet it never actually went out.

Says shipping label created on 1/28, but I think it got stuck in Atlanta, bc I don't see any updates on UPS after that.

Also, shipped signature required, wtf? Does Rob @ UUC think I have the time to take a day off of work to sign for my delivery? Leave it at my front door!

So we are pretty much in the same boat but it sounds like you weren't planning on putting yours on for a bit anyways.

Yeah I hope he didn't require signature on mine "aint nobody got time fo dat."

What does the CDV do?

CDV = Clutch delay valve. It is essentially an orifice placed inline threaded into the slave cylinder. It allows them to regulate how fast the clutch can go in and out (this is set by the size of the orifice which bmw uses, it can be more or less noticeable depending on how small the orifice is). The effect is a sort of delayed reaction on the clutch that will prevent a noob from dropping it and allows for smoother shifts if you don't know what your doing. If you do know what your doing it just makes it feel like your drunk or something and most people find it to be a hindrance.

Well if its fairly simple straightforward install I could probably do it over the weekend. Gotta get the extra clip and the rod joint though from the dealer, will order it with my CCV parts.

Good thing UPS usually delivers late to my house so most of the time I'm home, will let you know when my ETA is for the package to arrive.

I just took a closer look and mine has signature required as well which isn't the end of the world cause there is usually someone home. I also just realized that they shipped it next day air!! I guess my call paid off, super happy about that. Label was made at 11:30am so as long as they actually shipped it out today I should have it tomorrow. Here's hoping!

Solid man! Post up pics and impressions here if you get it installed over the weekend, or a post in the manual trans registry as well!

Thanks learned something new. Do all BMW come with this, well i mean most somewhat modern? For example is there a CDV on the e39 m5? e60 manual m5?
