so lately my transmssion has been giving me trouble

i took some advice from other topics that i searched for that said i should go to a trans shop and get it looked at and they said that i did need the clutch and it would be better just to do everything( pressure plates clutch flywheels bearings ya know...the works)

they said the job would run about 680

what do you guys think, can i find the job for a cheeper price, is it something i should attemp myself, and to i need to do everything....

let me know what you think

thanks
Alex

Well, a new clutch kit costs around $150. Resurfacing the flywheel costs $35 here at a local parts store. Say $200 for all parts and fluid and stuff. Then it should take around 5 hours or so, most shops charge like $30-$50 an hour, so that's $150 to $250 labor, total $550 max.

And I would do it for $150, which is $350 total.

So yeah, that's a little too high.
