Hey all,

Is there a local garage that can fit clutch & flywheel in Norwich? I will have the parts, just need someone to fit them.

Seems more and more garage are telling me that they do not fit parts that I paid for and they would rather source the parts themselves!!

Thanks all,

 

Only one I know of and would trust with my car is APT

 

Oh yes, forgotten all about them! Thanks, I will e-mail them.

 

Just for a laugh, I contacted two 'well known' garages for the full job to replace the clutch, flywheel & slave cylinder.

One quoted £1,100

Another one... wait for it... £1,700!!

I feel sorry for people who knows nothing about cars to accept the price and have it done! :/

 

What car is it?

 

Ford Focus ST170

 

I'm near sudbury if that's any good to you and you get stuck locally.

 

Thanks but I would rather be as close to local as possible as the clutch is almost totally gone and I don't want it to explode during a long drive...

 

I can collect.

 

That would add to the costs. But thank you, I'll stick with locals for now.

Cheers,

 

Car now sorted - big thanks to APT!

 

save and drive in gorleston, cheapest ever on clutches

 

I got the parts myself so were cheap anyway.

Plus Gorleston is still too far to take a big risk to drive there with a dead clutch. I have the old parts with me and they are totally fooked!

Clutch worn down to almost metal. Flywheel have a big play when wiggling the disc about - very loose! Really glad it didn't explode...

 

they collect on a transporter and charged me £260 when i couldnt get it under 500 elsewhere
did an escort clutch a few years back for 130!! all in
