This is the 2011 to Nov 2012 pedal assembly.




This is the revised pedal assembly for November 2012 and on. I would have to assume that this is the current assembly in new M3W's.



All of the aftermarket pedal assemblies that I've researched have the brake rod and clutch rod clevis directly attached to the pedals and does not rely on a secondary shaft or lever to actuate either master cylinder.

The original M3W design was very poor and I could see a recall to retrofit the new style direct coupled rod to pedal style.

Granted there was probably a flaw in the weld of the secondary lever, but it did fail and this could have be a deadly failure. Count your blessings that it happened when it did.

You can see on the revised November 2012 and on that at least the brake rod is attached to the pedal and no secondary lever to rely on.


My pedal assembly, or at least the throttle, does not resemble either of those. Sorry about the blurrysnap...

My M3W left the factory in September 2013, build no. 931. So presumably this Mk III version was introduced some time between December 2012 and September 2013.

Do you have a photo of the broken pedal, HJP?
