I just got off the phone from the Honda service department, and they want $1200 to fit my ORC clutch! Are they for real? Is that normal? What have other people paid for their clutch installs in the past? I'm not too keen on a DIY unless I really have to. I called Honda because I've heard changing the clutch on a DC5R is complicated and want to take it to someone who know what they're doing instead of just a random mechanic.
Any help would be great.
Cheers.
Sound abit expensive but this is also the reason people do flywheel and final drive generally at the same time Nuci
$500 ~ take about 5-6 hrs
Well yeah the ORC kit comes with a light flywheel so I'm doing that too, don't think I'll ever end up changing the final drive. But I paid like $550 to change the clutch in my old b16a crx so why is it twice as much for a DC5R?
Because you went to the dealer
I'll have to find someone who has done a few hondas before

Lol why would you take it to a dealer if they don't provide warranty anymore... Just take it to a reputable mech and get it done for half that quote
Well I've heard it's complicated and figured they would know exactly what they were doing and it wouldn't take as long. I knew they might be a bit more expensive but twice the price is an absolute joke.
I've heard things too.
What did you hear?
I'm on my phone but where are you located?
There's plenty of good mechs in syd. Dealers man use apprentices I wouldnt let them touch my car
