talking to someone who has a new mine,said it cost £2000 for a new clutch.
anyone got times/parts costs?

Ive just pais £250 for a complete disco clutch plus a new arm (clutch arm that is) fitted, £2k seems a bit heavy, think you better qoute for the job

i've just paid £600 for a 52plate 4x4 vectra, thats main dealer price.

Depends alot on the work involved and parts costs but my Audi S3 clutch was £1300 and that was with audi paying 25% as the car had only done 38,000

all part of the plan to make cars "owner proof"

Its a getrag box 6 speed in the Cooper the poverty spec I think has the same 5 speed version the same as the defunct Rover 75 and 45.

Normally doing a clutch in the Rovers also implies a new co-axial slave cylinder -- its a bit like the SAAB one but like the Mondeos its is plastic and not cheap £165 pounds, often the Master cylinder needs fitted as well. So Rover dealers were handing out 600 quid bills --- take that to BMW price levels for parts and labour and 2000 quid only looks like a slight ove statement.

Also BMW chrage a fortune for a tool that allows you to remove the wheel centre cap to get at the wheel nuts --- it dosen't come with ther car.
