fondo Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 Well when mine went the "stealership" charged me between $600-$700 but that included a clutch aswell (which you might aswell replace if your in there). About 1 week after I got my pathy back the pressure plate finally lost its "spring" in the forks, so I took it back and they replaced the the p-plate and waved the labor costs (since it was their mistake not to inpect the p-plate first time around). Any who, this was at a nissan dealer so I suppose you could find a reputable shop that might not have as bad of rates as a dealership. Make sure though to have them inspect all parts associated w/ the clutch for wear... Also have them check the rear engine seal. G-day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unccpathfinder Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 ^ what he said...and depending on how bad its whining and how many miles are on the clutch would drive the decision for me...i've had my 95 for almost a year and my cuz had it for a year or 2 b4 me and it always whined a lil bit on cold mornings for the both of us...i just recently changed it when i did the clutch (it had 125k miles or so on it) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unccpathfinder Posted April 3, 2007 Share Posted April 3, 2007 i should have mentioned that my driving style and my cuz's style isnt conducive to clutch longevity, more so me than her but she learned on it... i would say as long as its not yelling all the time and stops after its disengaged u're ok until the clutch is gone...but there is still a risk that it could seize up and leave u stranded....

fondo Posted April 3, 2007 Share Posted April 3, 2007 I should have mentioned that my throwout bearing seized up while I was driving it and left me stranded (although I was in town). Any way if this should happen to anyone (not that I recommend doing this, but I did) you can press in the clutch or use the interlock switch and start the truck in gear to get going then shift w/ engine rpms instead of a clutch. I know this isn't good for your starter but mine still works great without a glich, and this was 1 time event to get me home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedPath88 Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 If your going to take it in to have the throw out bearing changed bring a new clutch and pressure plate with you.. have them replace it if it's needed, if not return them (although it is usually cheaper to buy them as a set) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
