exo x mr clutch packs cost ???

Postby gazza90 » Wed Sep 06, 2017 5:58 pm

Hi all could some one please tell how much a set of new clutch packs for a evo x mr 2008 model are the install price please, i just got my car retuned ???? from a pretty well known performance shop in Brisbane they told me that there was some clutch slippage so they adjusted the fluid pressure on it but when i got the car back it was slipping all over the place basically undriveable so i gave them a car that was driveable but got a un driveable car back this seams to be quite unfair ??? so i drove away from shop some times in first gear then maybe 3rd gear drove car back them and they said well the packs were on the way out they have quote me $5500.00 to get it fixed using stage 1 sst or ssp clutch packs???? could some one please give me some advice Thanks Gaz *facepalm*

Theres no way I would have left the shop with the car how it was for starters.
I would have raised merry hell for sure.
$5500 is pretty stupid for a clutch replacement.
I have seen a full rebuild kit with clutch and throw out bearing and alignments tools on special eairlier this week for under a grand.its usual retail was just under 2 grand. So 3 grand for labour is plain dumb.

That price is about right for a SST rebuild. If you only have 1-3-5 or 2-4-6 it may have a selector fork problem as well.Whatever the problem it's going to cost lots of $$$.Make sure you find someone who knows these transmissions

i don't know much about tranny rebuilds but apparently boost jucin perfomance are notorious for evo engine/tranny rebuilds, hit them up for some prices they're quite nice

My bad sorry.yes i was thinking manual clutch not SST.
But either way if i took a working car into a mechanic and it was ok and they gave it back and it had issues there is no way i would be paying them to fix their mistake.
Never ever.
