#1: Clutch & Release Bearing Author: my1st206, Location: Milton KeynesPosted: Thu Jun 30, 2011 4:23 am ---- I broke down this morning at 1am and the AA came out and had to tow me home.
Had a clutch guy out today who said there is two types of clutch available one for £240 and one for £320, upon checking he said its the more expensive one required when he gave them the reg, he quoted £320 for a LUX/Luk Clutch to be fitted, I mentioned Kettering Motorist Centre offered it for £240 and he said he can do it for £260 and that will include taking the car to his garage which is about a half a mile away and me collecting it.
What do you think to this ?

Will be replacing complete clutch anyway.
What would be wrong with doing this as I don't see your point Big_Rich180 ??
Cheers
