[QUOTE="RossKean, post: 1451475, member: 19880"] Unless they REALLY screwed up the assembly, chances are that only the friction disks and clutch cover gasket need to be replaced - parts cost under $200. Steel clutch plates are likely OK - may need to be scrubbed with Scotchbrite pads and some solvent to clean them up. Replacement is needed if they are burnt, warped or below thickness spec. Not too difficult to do if you don't get satisfaction from Dealer A. I would get the necessary parts and do it myself and make sure to leave appropriate reviews for Dealer A to make it sting a bit. (Clutch cover gasket might be reusable and I would have a look at the condition of all the friction disks - might only be a couple of bad ones.) Certainly shouldn't cost anywhere near $1000 to do it yourself unless there is significant concurrent damage. [/QUOTE]
