Clio mk2 1.2 16v clutch?

[Bradd]

Last night I was out with some mates, we went down this really narrow steep hill and it was a dead end at the bottom, he managed to turn it around at the bottom (just) and i reversed back up the hill haha (very very steep). there was horrible smell coming from the engine bay and as soon as that happened i knew i had burnt my clutch out! managed to turn around in the middle of the road which ended up being about a 10 point turn as it was so narrow. my clutch was going anyway so now i need to get it replaced before it's too late! now if i accelerate from any gear its like revving with no power and then eventually it catches. to cut a long story short i would just like to know a rough price idea that i'm looking for to get it replaced (the part and labour costs)

Sorry for the essay haha! cheers

I paid a local mechanic £200 total (£50 for parts and £150 for labour) which was cheap, I'd guess most mechanics would charge around £300 total.

Just stay far away from Renault with it, friend of mine paid £750 for a new clutch fitted!

Hope that helps
