Family car, SUV. Method

What changes the price

On diesels and powerful petrol engines the clutch is often paired with a dual-mass flywheel. Ask whether the garage actually measured flywheel play before insisting on replacing it.

The hourly rate: it can double between a small-town independent and a city-centre dealer.
Parts quality: genuine, original-equipment brand or aftermarket.
Access: on some engines other parts must come off before the mechanic can reach the job.

Frequently asked questions

How much does a clutch kit cost?

At an independent garage, expect £470 to £1,055, parts and labour included. Main dealer: £665 – £1,740.

Why is the dealer more expensive?

Dealer hourly rates run 40 to 60% higher on average, and genuine parts cost more than their original-equipment equivalents. Under EU rules, servicing outside the dealer network does not void the manufacturer warranty.

What is book time?

It is the reference time set for a given job. Garages bill that time even if they work faster. If a quote shows far more hours than book time, ask why. Book time: 4 – 7 h.
