Replacing a Clutch Cost - Buyer Experiences and Price Information

I love this place! It was recommended to me and he is a good, trustworthy mechanic. He worked for Honda for years and only does Hondas and Acuras. His prices are awesome and he only uses Honda parts. I paid to have all the clutch parts replaced, the input shaft bearing replaced, and the transmission fluid changed. He said the labor was $325 of the amount. The $36 bucks was tax, so he really only charged me $600.

Clutch kit - updated version including a brand new duel mass flywheel (apparently the original clutches on VW Jetta's are horrible) - $440
Labor - $420

Parts: $180
Driving around getting everything: $20
Labor: $200

Having a car to get to work: priceless.

My car kept reving but wouldnt go anywhere. emailed clutchcity. and was told that it sounded like my clutch was slipping and i would need my fly wheel replaced. ordered one new from them went on yellow pages.com and found the shop that had a good review. it was more than i thought it would be but apparently thats average so i know i wont be speeding off as much as i used to.

only 47,xxx miles.. I thought that this was way to early.. maybe because I sit a lot in stop and go traffic.

Replaced clutch, hydraulics, master/slave cylinder at 125,000 miles after bearing exploded

Kia factory parts.

685 for clutch kit
550 labor
71,000 miles, bought the car used at 67,000 so I'm guessing it was an existing problem

The price wasn't bad but they took over two months to fix it. One mechanic even put something in wrong so I had to wait an extra day on top of everything just for them to fix it. Again. Do not go here.

475 includes total cost including parts and labor.

Clutch repaired at 99,560 by my own personal mechanic. Dealership quotes $1700+.

Just had to repair the clutch and the fly wheel...The labor is what brings the price up,...

takes a long time..5 hours but i got a killer deal compared to anyone else so i am happy. Its a must change when you feel anything with your clutch pedal studding or feeling rubbery

just a thought to all those who might do this job yourself i have two thoughts: you will save quite a bit of money, be patient when you put the transmission back in. It is labor intensive but not difficult. All i spent was on parts, and most mechanics charge some sort of mark-up on parts.

I'm glad I found all these posts!!! I live in New York City, daily commute through extremely heavy vehicle/pedestrian traffic will kill the clutch fast. Knowing now what an average clutch replacement cost surely changed my mind in getting the 6-Speed transmission!!

Thanks all for you posts.

No "Zoom-Zoom" for me...

I got a quote of $745 to have it replaced but they have to order the kit, so it will take several days they said. They said that if they have to do anything with the hydraulics then it will be more expensive.

I was flabbergasted when I got the total, but then quickly realized, I got a great deal. Plus, they felt so bad for the cost, that they fixed my exhaust and lights for nothing. They are really great guys!

parts 200.00 including all fluids labor 300.00

i think i got i good deal?

Replaced clutch, hydraulic lines and CV boot.

Was extremely surprised by the cost of replacing a Clutch. I could have got the clutch kit elsewhere for $200 less, but did not have that option. Looks like the labor involved is high and hence the high cost. Also fly wheel needs to be machined to make the clutch work well.

Replaced the clutch one of the best guys around. Did a great job and was quick work considering the parts came in late.

I had the clutch in in 1999 Outback and this particular model is difficult to work on. They had to remove the engine and transmission. The whole process took over two weeks.

the total cost was a clutch i got an offroad clutch so it cost a little bit more

replacing a clutch is not cheap when your clutch start slipping and ur rpm are reving high and ur car seems like it not moving fast?, u need to go and get ur clutch fix asap if not and you keep hammer it down?, you probably will do more damage and ur bill will be probably be 1,500-2,000 so don't let ur clutch slip too long or u will pay!!

Great garage they don't screw you over. Shop around before agreeing to take your car to someone.

just had my clutch replaced and i was shocked by the cost involved. i thought that i could save a dollar by buying the clutch at my local auto parts store but it was still over 340 dollars.
now i'm no auto specialist but i thought that the cost was a little high. what do you think.
