Definitely have them check the clutch slave cylinder. Mine failed shortly after install. It popped out of the housing and would not retract, which would create the problem you describe. The housing is PLASTIC (crazy, right?) so if your old clutch was slipping a lot it may have become deformed. I am not sure how obvious it would be during install, but with hailing them inspect it.
You have a 1M, correct? N54 135 will NOT accept this clutch.

Thanks for the reply! Yes, I have a 1M.
I actually ordered a new slave cylinder after reading about it failing from your older post. I really researched all the forums for as much info as I could before I ordered the 550i clutch.
The guys at the shop told me yesterday that a self-regulating ring from the pressure plate had moved (during shipping maybe?) so they were trying to reset it back to it's original position so the clutch would be able to disengage.
I hope they can figure it out soon and I can have my clutch installed.
I'll let you know how it goes.
