FiddyZed Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 My DE needs a clutch and flywheel change, [the clutch pedal started sticking to the floor after a long drive on Saturday] so over the last few days I've been ringing around to find out what the average price was before booking it in.... Spoke to a few specialists and thought, let me just see what Nissan would charge. I've Just come off the phone after speaking to a girl in the service department at a local Nissan dealership and I still can't stop laughing :lol: . I asked her how much it would be for a clutch and flywheel including vat and labour and she put me on hold for a while (maybe whilst she made up the numbers) and came back with.... £2979.30p. I just feel sorry for the poor sod that doesn't know about the specialists and this forum and actually stomaches up £3k for a clutch and flywheel change.

AliveBoy Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 If it's just the pedal on the floor you only need to change the slave cylinder, it's a very simple job 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Over here in Luxembourg I did exactly the same thing and asked the same question to the Nissan dealer... their price was what you just quoted... not including labour costs! Instead I had to drive the near 600 miles (including ferry crossing) to Sly's place... well worth it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
