Just got this clutch replacement estimate. All parts are being provided by me. I'm fine with most of it but I have a question regarding the "Replace throwout bearing slider - $38.40" and "Replace transmission input seal - 64.80" items. Those both seem pretty high to me. The bearing slider is 3 bolts and my understanding is the input seal is underneath it. So shouldn't the bearing slider removal/install be included in the price of the trans seal?

Thoughts?

 

guide tube/ shaft is about 25.00 from Pelican the seal is around the same can't recall, I can not see what's in the picture sorry too small but those are good items to change. also change the fork arm bushings very cheap.

 

Maybe I wasn't clear enough in my first post. The prices I'm asking about are only for the labor. I gave them all the parts when I dropped off the car.

 

Sorry mate, you were clear I was just tired lol.

Those are very funny prices..... The seal would be the more complicated but the price is bit much just for those two items

 

PinkLinc, where did you take the MINI to be worked on?

 

Autohaus. The work they do is always top-notch but the last couple times I've been there I've felt like the front of house is trying to pull one over on me. Having those 2 items listed separately on the estimate seems odd. It's like going in for a brake job and getting hit with a labor charge to take the wheels off. Am I missing something here?
