When I press the clutch pedal in, there is a grinding sound like metal on metal. Very high pitched and squealing. The gear box makes no noise, I haven't lost much power on uphill movement. Its just the grind that's worrying me.

I've been told to replace the clutch kit. How long should this job be taking and what does it entail?

HI there,

The clutch thrust bearing may have seized, this will be do damage to the pressure plate fingers, the gear box will have to be removed and the fly wheel machined as well, get a few quotes before getting it done shop around for the best price.Thi sis about a 5 hr job.
