Changing clutch - job for local garage?

[jesus]

My mate has a 182 which could benefit from a clutch change. There's a decent local garage nearby and he's wondering whether to take it there or use a specialist for it.

I'm basically wondering if there's anything that can be cocked up by a non-specialist not knowing something or any comming things that don't get refitted correctly or anything like that. You know what I mean!

Also, has anyone had one done by Birchdown and could give a rough price before we phone up? Or recommend anywhere in the North West? Cheers.

any half decent garage should sort it no problem.

Perfect I'll pass that on.

Yep, shouldn't be many issues with a regular garage.

I would use a specialist though, just because they'll know what they're doing so the labour time will be quicker.

~£450 inc parts is fair for the job.
