Leave it alone, unless you are a trained mechanic you can easily end up with problems, misalignment, rear seal leaks, etc.

mechanics guarantee their work.
you have to pull the motor to put in a Honda/Acura clutch...leave it for a repair shop or you will have more trouble than you bargained for.
Hey, This is not an easy job for everyday person, it does take a few special tools, and a lot of regular tools. I'm not saying that you cant do it, but I would recomend that if you do, buy a chilton book and read it well. I have done lots of them, and it takes me several hours, even with a lift and lots of air tools. Good luck

How long should it take for a shop to change the clutch on my 91 Ford Probe GL?

Im tryin not to get ripped off on shop hours, Also I need to change the cv joints. Thanks for any helpHow long should it take for a shop to change the clutch on my 91 Ford Probe GL?
They have to pull the engine, so it's going to run close to $1,000 :(How long should it take for a shop to change the clutch on my 91 Ford Probe GL?
Ford Probe *cringe*.... Unless it is like brand new with 25,000 miles on it or less just get a new car.....
Really you know what, you are going to get ripped off if you go to a shop anyway so I don't know if you are going to want to take it to get fixed. I mean if you have someone that you know and is good with cars all you have to do is followed, Well really it's all about how long it will take you. I know that we had to do that in ours and most of the work is lifting the engine up. If you lift the engine out it should take a few hours depending if you know what you are doing. For a shop to do that it will be like more money than the car is worth. I know how much fun these are to drive. So basically don't take it to a mechanic. I know because I am one and I was sick of getting kicked in the A** When I took my cars to the shop, so have good luck
Depends on how busy the shop is, but typically a day or two.
I had a 74 ford with bad motor mounts and i only got charged $450. for a new clutch and motor mounts, so i'm not sure how much your cv joints are going to cost. if your smart you'll find a well certified auto shop and just get a quote. i'd estimate right around $500-$1000. but i'm not a pro on some of the 90's cars. but trust me when they pull the motor they pull it right up to the radiator and this can take a while. it took my friends shop 2 hours.
When it comes to hours and prices, a reputable shop will charge by what is known as ';flat rate'; hour. This is determined by a book that is available to repair shops and gives an estimate of how long it should take to replace parts. This will not be available to you or any other customer to look at, so don't bother asking. The bottom line is that you need to shop around and get an estimate. You should dismiss both the lowest and highest priced places. The highest will most likely be the dealership and the lowest will probably be a shop that has never done one before and has no clue as to the trouble a Probe is. So that leaves the others. That will give you an estimate of what it will cost. Do you have a sentimental attatchment to the car? If so, then you will probably want to get the car fixed. If not, then seriously consider shopping around for another car and see what kind of trade in you can get for yours. The trade in value won't be much, but will be better than putting money into what you have and not getting that much more for it on trade. The time it takes for the actual job and the time it takes for the shop to get your car finished is actually 2 different things. If the shop had ALL the possible parts that is needed to complete the job waiting there when you get your car there then the time would be a lot quicker than the actual time that it takes. The actual time involves tearing down your car, seeing what is needed (parts), then ordering the parts and waiting on the parts people to deliver them. That can in some cases almost double the time that it would take for the actual repair. Most shops are not out to rip anyone off. The prices that are charged are to cover overhead, and to try to make a fair and honest living for their families. Then there is the government regulations from the DNR and EPA just to name a couple. So once again, bottom line, shop around and get prices then compare that cost to the cost of replacing the car. Then let your pocketbook be your guide.

    hey guys i have a 1998 honda accord lx 4 cyl and i was wondering if there is any repair instructions online i can find to remove and replace the clutch it will be helpful thanks.How do i change my clutch on my 98 honda accord?
    I have not found any repair manuals online but you are in for a great time. I suggest that you go to Auto Zone or Advanced auto and get yourself the repair manual that covers your car. Then study it closely and if you are confident you can do it, dive right in. Remember it is a pain to do this type of repair from the floor without a lift, engine support, trans jack and some help. Good luck.How do i change my clutch on my 98 honda accord?

    Can you give me some advice on how to change a clutch cable?

    My bike is stranded and i need to replace the cable to move it.

    Honda VTX1300 2006.

    I'm guessing the end that goes on the lifter is relatively simple but I have never looked at the clutch lever before.



    Thanks for any help.Can you give me some advice on how to change a clutch cable?
    Good luck on push starting a vtx1300 anyway!



    Put the cable in the handlebar side first, it's just a slip in end with a metal disc, and the cable routes thru the slit in the lever. Run the cable to the casing side, and you'll see the lever where the other side attaches. Use a flat head screwdriver to push the lever forward by hand, and slip the cable in the slot on the lever. When you let go of the lever, the slack will tighten up on the cable. Be sure you route the whole cable as the old one was, to insure theres no obsrtuctions, or pinching of the cable along the way. Adjust the cable at the bottom to take out any initial slack if needed, and do the final adjustments at the clutch lever adjuster.Can you give me some advice on how to change a clutch cable?
    np....glad to help! ride safe

    its fairly straight forward, it just has and end piece to clip it on. you dont actually need the clutch to get it home. just get a rolling start and click it in to gear. and get neutral before you stop. its easy enough.
    One tip ?do the routing before you take your old cable out.

    Never heard of a Nissan Micro - go outside and have a look at the badges on the car, and tell us if it says ';Micra';?
    Please don't take this to heart but you would be lucky to part exchange your car for a wiper blade off a Skoda.
    ignore the other prats, the micra is a reliable wee car,i know this coz i had one until a macho man in a lorry decide that coz he was bigger than me decided to write off my little beauty.anyway sorry, i never had to replace my clutch so cant help with your question but im sure some INTELLIGENT people out there will be able to help. good luck any many miles of happy motoring.
    manual or automatic
    Approx 拢100 for a clutch at most garages, very easy job on a micra,ring around to get a good price.

    How much does it cost to change a clutch?

    so my clutch is beginning to slip, every once in a while. and i just wanted to know how much it would run to get this replaced? and im pretty sure its not a hydraulic clutch. '89 bmw 325i.How much does it cost to change a clutch?
    About $250.00-$400.00 if done @ a shop, (SHOP AROUND) I think all Clutches are hydraulic...



    If you did the work you'll save about half if not more- rear wheel drive cars may be easier but it is still a lot of work...



    A friend recently replaced his ';front wheel drive'; 1996 Pontiac Sunfire... and it took him about TWO days to get it all done, he mentioned he will never do another CLUTCH again.



    Best wishes...

    ';/JOeHow much does it cost to change a clutch?
    around 100 for the clutch kit 100 for the labor and another hundred for time spent so around 300.00 to 400.00
