Car Forum / Nissan / Nissan Cars / July 2006Clutch Repair
Hi, i have nissan sentra 1998 manual 5 spd. yesteraday when i was going at the interstate it just came to standstill. The problem was clutch. even after full release and at low gear it was not transmitting power. I have to get it towed away. I think it is a clutch repair. Can anybody give me the estimate how much repair cost i am looking here? I shall be highly obliged. Thanks in advance. > Hi, > i have nissan sentra 1998 manual 5 spd. yesteraday when i was going at [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > give me the estimate how much repair cost i am looking here?

SignatureSteve http://www.atlantaracing.com Hi Steve, Thanks for replying. I am not sure what is broken?? Well i live in Ohio (Cincinnati). I just wanted an estimate. So according to you it shouldbe between 400-800 bucks. I assume it should include labor charges too. I also want to ask what sould be the repair cost in the worst case. Which are the critical components that makes this repair cost so high.

Also depends on the quality of the labor, where you live (labor rates vary) and if the flywheel has been damaged or not. SignatureSteve http://www.atlantaracing.com HI Steve, Thanks for replying again. What is flywheel and what is its function? Is the cost of repair more if the flywheel is damaged? thanks in advance, regards Girish > > Hi Steve, > > Thanks for replying. I am not sure what is broken??

What is flywheel and what is its function? It's the part the clutch bolts to that is normally not replaced when doing a clutch job. There are 2 mating surfaces (pressure plate and flywheel) with the friction material (clutch disk) between these 2 surfaces. When the clutch disk is worn out, the clutch slips and damages these mating surfaces. Usually the flywheel can be reused since it is a much heavier piece of metal than the pressure plate or can be machined if it isn't damaged too badly. > Is the cost of repair more if the flywheel is damaged? Yes and it probably is since it was driven till it wouldn't move anymore. SignatureSteve http://www.atlantaracing.com |
