I am was wondering what the major difference or pros and cons of replacing a clutch or having it rebuilt? I recently took my car in and they said it needed a new clutch and want $900 to service and replace it, most of that is labor.

Hi there,

It will be cheaper and quicker to get a new clutch assembly fitted, remember to get the flywheel re faced as well.
