Cost of new clutch put in +......

Post by hi_im_fil »

Hi, I was looking at a mini to buy today. It looks like its in very good condition, apart from a few bits that need to be done to the engine. The clutch bearing is on the way out and new engine mounts need to be fitted. Also the valve seals need to be replaced. Not sure what the last thing is or even if im on about the right thing.

Anybody got a rough idea for the cost to get this done at a garage? The new engine mounts and valve seal things are coming with the car.

Cheers
Philip

The clutch release bearing isnt too hard a job, nor the engine mounts, but to do the valve stem oil seals the head has to come off. Perhaps some of our other Limerick members could suggest somewhere that could do the work for you.
