Mine was about £1300 at Parkside in Huddersfield. Indy lr specialists. Dual mass flywheel, slave cylinder etc etc. Previously had master cylinder replaced at Stonelake in Copley, near Halifax for about £420, but my pedal started sticking again a few months later. Finally had a new pedal fitted for about £200.....so an expensive do for. a 50000 mile car !! The new pedal is still quite creaky when it gets warm, but it’s staying that way !! The main clutch replacement is a gearbox out job so 1 to 2 days

£50 + VAT, around the going rate, give or take a few quid either way

This upsets me. I did not pay that in Edinburgh for mine Sad

Sadly there was no way it was going to Dundee the mess it was in. Learned to drive in 2011.
Bought a Micra - great little car
"Upgraded" to Kia Sportage - hated it
Proper upgrade to FL2 TD4 GS 60 reg Facelift - tailgate paint issues, fuel gauge rewire, transfer box failure at 36k miles, clutch at 60k
Reconditioned diff at 70k ish
Sold at 84k and now on a DS. Terribly unreliable.
Sold DS for a 2021 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV. Fingers crossed....
Sold Outlander for a 2014 SD4 SE Tech because I’m mental

it would seem a full LUK clutch kit and DMF is around £330 from what I have found so far.

I'd love to know where from, because even at trade prices, that's a whole lot cheaper than I get from anywhere

United Kingdom 2009 Freelander 2 TD4 GS Auto Zermatt Silver

As you’re in Leeds , try Maltings Off Road , the other side of Doncaster . They certainly know their stuff , and are priced extremely competitively . Even allowing for taking another car , driving my wife down to Lincoln , having a day out and a couple of meals we were hundreds of pounds better off on the cambelt change , than staying locally . No reason to think they wouldn’t be the same on a clutch .

Stonelake are very good , but they are not bargain priced . Same goes for Green Oval near IKEA. 2009 GS Auto Zermatt Silver - Sold June 21 after 10 years of ownership

2016 Subaru Outback SE 2.0 diesel SE Premium Lineartronic Sold 2024 after 8 years and 80k miles . Best Car I ever owned !

2023 Toyota Hilux invincible X 2.8 Auto .

will look at Maltings ,the car is still drivable but feel I could be on borrowed time so would rather get it done

Have you actually purchased a kit from them? The don’t specifically state it’s an LUK kit, only “OEM Quality” which could mean your being supplied with anything, And it’s a generic image used, very misleading... Neutral

EDIT: They are trading under the name NATIONWIDE CLUTCH DISTRIBUTORS UK LTD

I suggest you google them for their company reviews, before parting with any money Rolling with laughter
