Has anybody had an aftermarket clutch fitted.

I have just been quoted £670 to have a new clutch fitted by Fenny Compton Subaru.

Even though my car (MY99) is still under extended warranty, I am considering going with a non Subaru replacement as £670 is a whole load of money.

On top of that the car is almost ready for a 75k service which will cost, AND I will soon need to replace my front disks as the EBC pads I had the missfortune of fitting have eaten the current ones.

 

Just to update, Tyres Northampton have just quoted me £220+vat for a new clutch fitted. This seems an excellent price, especially considering it is a 5 hour job.

What am I missing?

 

Rivett autos in Sussex does it for a simalar price Had mine done a few months ago and not had a problem.

 

£220 + vat, is that for a new clutch cover, clutch plate, and new release bearing ?

If that price includes 5 hours of labour, it doesn't leave much for parts.

Mark.

 

I think the 220+vat is just the fitting part
Go check out www.scoobymania.co.uk and order one of their AP clutches, then go get that fitted there you may find its cheaper as they only charge 25 quid an hour labour

PS, be warned that you may want to take more money than you expected to take in the first place as you may wish to buy more than just a clutch
