To me, the clutch feels pretty typical Porsche (of course, I don't have enough of a base for comparison like the techs do). I still have plenty of free travel and it seems to engage just fine, though.

On the phone, they said the job to replace the seal, clutch, and flywheel would run about $3000. That sounds pretty high to me though, given that just the parts alone add up to about $1300.

Does this seem reasonable, or should all of this be less money?
Yes, the stiff clutch IS a symptom on these cars. I would assume it was about to be toast.

$3K sounds as bit high but if this is a PPI, I would assume that to be the number and act accordingly.
