I didn't think 250.00 for labor was bad. from a mechaniac out of his shop.

120$ clutch and flywheel replaced

 

[Kansasdog]

$425 for a clutch replacement including parts and labor? Sh#T, I'll drive to wherever that shop is. My last clutch ('98 Altima) ran $1,200 and that was a good deal...

No not to replace the flywheel trying to resurface the flywheel. 120 for daikin clutch.

I am paying 500 to have a Clutchmasters stage 2 clutch installed. That doesn't include re-surfacing the flywheel. I am still deciding if I want to replace it with a ligher one.

 

[too2buff]

has anyone ever posted a how-to on clutch replacement? or is it too difficult to even bother with?

 

[HawaiianEagle]

it's not hard...just ALOT of labor involved.. i mean you ARE separating the motor from the transmission

That would be an extreamly large post thare is a lot to do. decied to do the job myself took 6hrs to pull the trans. Mainly because I didn't know how to. The basics are pull both axles drop the subframe disconect the electical connectors and unbolt the transmition. I have mine lying on the floor of my heated garage. Man I love haveing a heated garage. :nana:

I just got quoted $1080 by my dealer for parts and labor... is that a good/bad/average deal? Would i be better off buying the parts myself and getting a local mechanic for the job??

Your dealer looks competitive, but it's always a good idea to shop around between shops that you trust. As mentioned above, I paid $1,200 for a clutch job in my old Altima that included a 2 year 24K mile warranty on parts and labor.


BTW, how many miles did you get out of your clutch?

yeah i wanted to do some looking around first...

well i'm at 46k right now, so not as much as i wanted to, although i do ride it kind of hard... a lot of starts out of second because 1st is a pain to shift into unless i'm completely stopped. it's only slipping a bit at the moment, so i may get a few more thousand before it needs to be replaced.

Just found a better price for the labor... $729 including install and resurfacing of flywheel. add $380 for cluchmaster stage 1 from RPm...... final cost is $1109 so.. that's $29 more than the dealer but i get a clutchmaster rather than a stock....
how does that sound? a few other places i checked were way more than that for a stock replacement....

Why do you need to replace your clutch if your car is only 3 years old? Do you race it alot? Or are you just upgrading?

120 for daikin clutch where are you guys getting this prices from? who sells them? RPM cheapest clotch is like 370 or so, and then I have to buy a lighter fly wheel might ass well. are these daikin cluches any good?

Another question whats the difference as far as durability, and performance on a OEM replacement and A stage 1 clutch. and what about the stage 2 or 3 what do I gain/loose with those? I am bit new to the clutch market so I am just trying to get familiarized a little bit.

It seems to me that the 6 it's a clutch eater(people reporting 3 in less than 80k miles thats insane), my civic never had this problems and God a beat the crap out of that car daily.


Are there like combos of A clutch and lighter flywheel, available? somewhere around 500 or less?

What if I get a stage 2 clutch masters, will it last for at least 50K

You can at least gauge quotes on parts against the prices found here.

My dealership quoted me 1300 to 1400 for a stock clutch job...ugh! But with a 05 6S do you have to pull the motor or could you pull everything from the bottom?
