Once the transmission is out replacing your old clutch with a new one is 10 minutes in labor.

No charge what so ever to remove and replace the transmission. I've been telling them to do so and they kept telling me the car is fine.

The pressure plate and release bearing are being replaced for free.

I will pay only for the disc which also gets replaced.

Except for this disc, was this done under a warranty?

hey toolpants...

is the $1800 for clutch kit with labor high? at the local porsche dealer. I was expecting $1000-1500.

I am going to have to find out what the going rate is because I am due for a clutch replacement. One of the local owners just had his replaced by the dealer but there was no labor charge for the clutch install as they were doing a goodwill RMS replacement anyway.

I doubt very much I will have it done at the local dealer as much as I like them because I know it will be expensive. But I will ask what they charge just for grins. Then talk to some independent Porsche shops I know.

The parts are not expensive if you do not buy them from a dealer. For $250 I can a Sachs clutch, disc, and release bearing.
