I am sure not everyone is real familiar with the pull type clutch system used on the 930 but some will likely have some input.
Some times things are hard to explain, however the T/O bearing is pulled back by a internal fork in the bell-housing. The fork makes contact on to flat areas of the T/O bearing which in turn gives it a good place to draw back the T/O. My clutch made a snapping noise and the pedal went limp. I can see the T/O bearing inside an inspection hole, the flange where the fork pulls on the bearing has broken off. Luckily at this point nothing else has been damaged. Does this happen much and is there some other things to look at which might have caused this. I am trying to get a head start before dropping the transmission.
