After market clutch?

[alex_hazard]

Hello,

So I was quoted around $1300 inc. parts to put a new genuine clutch into my 182. It seems very expensive and im wondering if any of the after market units are any good? I went to a renault dealer and they said I should get a flywheel too is this true? They said this because the car shudders under take off and they reckon the flywheel has hot spots and in machinable? I'm in melbourne, australia. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks

Cost for a standard Valeo clutch in the UK is approx £120. Unless you're running BIG power, there's no need for anything more.

Labour should be about 6 hours.

Flywheel- you should be fine. If it's not straight, whip it off and have it skimmed (it's only 7 bolts once you've got the box out and there's no reason you can't take a tiny bit off!)

Fly me out to Aus and put me up for the weekend, i'll buy you the clutch from here, bring my tools and i'll do it FOC! (;
