Clutch...thrust Bearing?

After 165k miles I am getting a noise when the clutch pedal depressed. I suspect the thrust bearing. This clutch has done at least 100k miles to my knowledge, and has probably never been changed! Question - Is it necessary to completely disassemble the clutch to have the bearing changed...in which case it would be best for me to have the whole clutch assembly replaced whilst it is stripped down?
Thanks in advance

I've always thought it was best practise to replace everything while it is stripped down,few extra pounds now may save you a lot later.

Wise words gents I think. Quotes ranging from £1051 to £1445 currently to include DMF, clutch and thrust bearing. Can't really complain though, the old one has done very well...

At that mileage maybe you should consider replacing the slave cylinder too. You cannot get at it without access to the clutch. Surprised 10MY (Sept 09) TD4 HSE Auto in Stornoway Grey (Now Gone)
