If the slave cylinder is gone, then so is your clutch. The hydraulic fluid squirts past the seal and into the bell housing, soaking the clutch. This is major disassembly involving clutch replacement, and of course the slave. Check the level in your clutch fluid reservoir. If it's low or gone, then that's your problem.
Don't buy an el-cheapo replacement slave. They don't last. Only buy the genuine BMW part, made by Magura. Well worth the extra money.
A BMW dealer will charge you about US$2500 to do the job if you can't, or are unwilling, to do it yourself.
