Hey guys, I"ve got an 2007 speed3 with 72k miles. Recently my clutch pedal went to the floor and never came up. Obviously couldn't engage any gears. I had it towed to a friends, he thought it might be the slave cylinder. The slave cylinder had a broken seal.
After replacing the slave/clutch return cylinder, and bleeding the hydraulic system for days I eventually determined the problem was bigger. I took it to a dealership, they said either the bearings or pressure plate are broken. They want $1400 if its the clutch, $1400 more if the flywheel needs to go too.
Does this seem astronomical? The clutch repair price seems right to me, but an additional $1400 for the flywheel? That seems absolutely absurd to me.
Has anyone else had the dealership do these repairs? Does that seem astronomical? Also can I negotiate this or get some sort of a discount? Anyone whos had experience with this, any help would be greatly appreciated.
