I will wait till it is really slipping, decide what to do to it then. €400 is a good price, £500 for a poxy Renault Clio seems expensive to me, last clutch I changed was in a Cavalier, it was a 20 minute job. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Front wheel drive will be a bit different, probably need to remove a drive shaft and possibly move one of the lower crossmembers. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will definitely have to come out underneath, needs to be up on ramps, lift or have a pit, of which I have none, I can't even do a oil change on the damn thing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
