My mechanic told me he would replace my clutch master cylinder, slave cylinder, and clutch for $1100. (95 integra)
I thought that price sounded a little high.
Does anyone know what a fair price for these repairs would be?

 

im gessing that sounds about right...im pretty sure replacing the whole clutch would cost around a g...master cylinder is around 100 n slave is around 75 or osmething i dont remember...unless you do it yourself itd b a lot cheaper

wow wat kind of clutch are you replacing?! 1 grand is a lot for a new clutch + the labor

 

you should probably try doing your clutch yourself. there is an article on team-integra.net the clutch maser cylinder can be rebuilt so you can try looking into that.

 

what kind of clutch the guy is giving u? for $1100? come to me... i'll get you a stock EXEDY CLUTCH for under $100 and the master cylinder for under $200.... If you live around the new york area i'll help u install it in for $100 so a grand total of $400 =P

 

ya.. thats too much money, all those parts you listed will probably cost u 500 for good parts. and i guess labor is a lot too..try replacing the clutch urself.

 

Definitely too expensive. Clutch/tranny work is not "easy" per se, so a run of the mill garage mechanic will charge you more than a tranny specialist. Did you try going to a transmission-only place such as Aamco? They should do the clutch for you for about $350 or so.

The slave/master cylinder should be an easy job for you to do yourself. You can get them new at any autoparts store, or even OEM used here on HT.

If you have the means/space/tools/time, then I highly recommend you try to do this yourself. You will learn a lot in the process, not only how to change a clutch, but how things work, and where everything is.

 

my cuzon told wen he replaced his whole clutch it ran him around 1g...i was assuming itd b the same for tegs...

Why do you type/speak like that?

What do you mean when you say "his whole clutch." Did he replace the pressure plate and the clutch/friction disc along with the related bearings? Add to that the resurfacing of the flywheel, and that's what's included in a standard clutch replacement.

$1000 is waaaay too much.

let me guess.. you heard that on t.v.

 

i would say that is pretty high, i got slave and master cylinders replaced, new clutch and flywheel installed for just over $900.

 

try doin it urself, thats the cheapest way
