    CDV Clutch Delay Valve?

    Can anyone tell me if a 1996 e36 M3 (s52, build date 06/96) has a CDV? It sure feels like it, but I just pulled the soft line going to the slave cylinder and I don't see any additional fitting that could be the valve. Just checked RealOEM and it shows the valve right on the slave. I also read the restriction could be in the actual soft line, but both ends of the hose look the same, IE there's no reduction in one end. Could it be somewhere upstream towards the engine bay that I'm not seeing?

    It's possible the PO had it pulled when they replaced the clutch, but I have meticulous records for the car including the clutch work and there's no mention.

    My 96 did not have one. If you don’t see an obvious out of place piece, then that confirms it.

    Interesting. Thanks. Too bad I pulled the line looking for it, bleeding the clutch is a w***e.
