Default Labor for Clutch replacement ?

Time to get some South Bend to make my car ready for 1/4 mile.

I think it is something that I cannot do it so I need to take it to the shop.

What is the avarage labor for a clutch ???

Is it something every shop can do or do I need to take it audi/vw specialist ?

Any ideas ?

Thanks

Thats something id leave to auto assets or any shop that isnt the dealer, and is also not Firestone..... Id deffinately call the dealer for a price quote so you know what the worst case is.. Then call Auto assets for a quote.. Maybe we can track down goldenchild?? haha..
I think auto assets charges $65/hour, so if its an 8 hour job thats about $500 for labor costs. How much is the clutch itself?

in the UK profit is made by the cost of parts the labor is just an appetiser on your wallet, if you cant do it you should learn hell man you did loads of work on your car the clutch is the easy part

They should be willing to shut their shop down and get their best boyz in there to do your clutch for free for all the publicity they got from you.
