I have a mk3 astra 1.4i Hi-T and am wondering how easy to replace the clutch as the release bearing is going. If it is not a simple procedure then how much should it cost at a garage?
I have some knowledge of cars and usually do all work on it myself but have never attempted a clutch change.
Cheers
James.

Its not really that hard mate , if u get a haynes manual they tell u step by step on how to take it off and replace it ..... all your doing is popping the bell housing off so no need to remove engine. its a sequence to getting it right so get a manual have a read and go for it ...
Under the gear selector unit on the gearbox you will find a number in reasonable sized print.If you post that on here it will be easy to tell you how big a job it is?Number is like F13 or F16 etc.Hope this helps
either 30 mins labour or 2 hours labour depends which gearbox is fitted to your car, both can be done at home on the path if you need to but neither are expensive to have done by a clutch centre.
