Nissan Primera Clutch Change

[Steviewevie]

A friend of mine has an old Nissan Primera (late 90s ?) whose clutch has just gone (i.e. severe slipping). Since she's female (the friend, that is), I am wary of her possibly getting ripped off by a dodgy garage.

Doing a quick Google it looks like clutch kits come in at less than £100. Anyone have any idea roughly how much (in terms of time) labour should be required to change the clutch ?

approx 4-5 hours according to the book, could be done in and around 3 if the mech is good, but i would budget for around 5 hours maximum

Thanks Mat :D

most places i know would charge a maximum charge of £250-£260 for supply and fit

She just found out that, similar to another member's story on here recently, it was actually her mat jamming the accelerator pedal and causing problems ! She did see the funny side of it though and was relieved not to have a big pre-Xmas bill !
