Title: 2.0 mpi clutch
Post by: paul_humphreys on October 02, 2005, 16:00:08: I have just got the above and the clutch has gone. I have been looking for for the part mumbers and a price. I can not find a online parts place listing the parts. So no price as yet, can anyoe help?

Also how much should it cost to have it fitted? I know its not a nice job.

I've also managed to find a couple of local independents that sell parts at the right price.

Yeah me too. We have dingocrofts here in High Wycombe. They are a little more expensive BUT when I have a big job, they know all the gaskets needed, screws and bolts that snap etc and make sure you have all you need for the job in hand. Dam useful!!!!!

Lists of friendly (cheap) outlets for parts.

Whoops just reread Neil's post and it is on the list.

He's sharp as a pin that Neil :)
