FixClutch Replacement Cost
What owners actually paid
The shaded middle is where half of all these repairs landed: $400 – $1,244. The price on any one car depends on the vehicle — the table below shows the range for each.
What this repair is
The clutch couples a manual transmission to the engine, and it is a wear item: slipping under power, a burning smell, or a pedal that grabs at the very top are the classic endgame. Replacement is labor-dominated — the transmission comes out — so the kit (disc, pressure plate, release bearing, often the flywheel resurfaced or replaced) is done as one job.

What moves the price
- Flywheel — resurfacing is cheap; a dual-mass flywheel replacement is not.
- Drivetrain layout — AWD and transverse layouts take far longer to pull the transmission.
- Hydraulics — slave cylinders are usually replaced while the transmission is out.
Quotes near the low end usually mean standard kit with the flywheel resurfaced, two-wheel-drive layout. Quotes near the high end usually mean dual-mass flywheel replaced, all-wheel-drive or subframe-drop vehicles, slave cylinder and hydraulics renewed.
