$1000 may seem high when you first look at it, but when you break it down its not. assuming your dealership's rate is $100/hr, 10.0 hours of labor gets you to $1k before taxes. the tech needs to pull your transmission, pull the old clutch off, resurface the flywheel, and reinstall everything.

anytime you pay someone to pull out your transmission it wont be cheap.

$500 for a factory clutch/pressure plate sounds about right as well.


sorry for the bad news, hope that helps.
