#1: A friend in need.... Author: Jordan_xsi, Location: IpswichPosted: Fri Jul 22, 2011 3:44 am ---- ...is a friend indeed
Anyway... Just need a quick bit of advice on how much i should be paying to have my clutch replaced on my XSi? The problem is the release baring but my bigger problem is the quote my local garage just gave me... £300+ vat for the kit and 4 hours labour. This to me seems expensive or is it just me being tight ?
Even better if anyone could do it or knows anyone that could for a more reasonable price or in exchange for my detailing services plus some cash
Thanks in advance.

#4: Re: A friend in need.... Author: Seabook, Posted: Fri Jul 22, 2011 3:59 am ---- clutch kit about 100-120. 4 hr labor cost sounds about right

Then the gearbox decided to go so had them do both together so it was £350 for a recon box and a brand new valeo clutch. I dont think i would pay over £200 for it to be done.
