What changes the price

On the BMW 3 Series, access takes on average 25% more time than the average for its class (premium), where the range is £610 – £1,460.

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.

Frequently asked questions

How much does a clutch kit bmw 3 series cost?

At an independent garage, expect £670 to £1,615, parts and labour included. Main dealer: £925 – £2,565.

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. BMW 3 Series: 5 – 9 h.

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.
