I bet you can't even get a manual Cadillac Catera.  :-?

Surely your clutch is the same as a 3.0 manual ....  ;)  ;)

Any ID numbers on it anywhere? Also might be worth emailing your pics to a gearbox specialist, along with any identifying numbers/marks - they might be able to help...especially if they think they might get a sale out of it  :)

no springs and no pointed inwards fingers ???

Silly question but does the 3.2 use a dual mass flywheel? if so has yours been converted to a solid flywheel with a different clutch cover etc hence the springs? Had the same problem on a 3 series beemer i owned.
