Default OEM clutch replacement cost

Clutch just started slipping & needs to be replaced. How much is the usual quote for a stock clutch replacement? I'm assuming the parts that would get replaced would be the flywheel & pilot bearing, friction disk, throwout bearing, & pressure plate. Any parts I'm missing?

Also how long does it usually take a Honda mechanic to replace a clutch?

Thanks

It takes six to nine hours so since labor rates vary it will cost $400 to $800 in labor. Mark up on parts will also vary but the MSRP on OEM parts comes to over $700. Seems like most dealerships quote $1100 to $1400 total.

I wouldn't think you would need a new flywheel just a resurface; I would consider all new bolts for flywheel and pressure plate though.

If you replace all parts it will be pilot and release bearings, FW, FD, and PP. They are lower over the web, but not cheap (over $500 plus shipping). You can resurface a FW but Honda does not recommend it and most dealerships will not do it. I don't really think the bolts need to be replaced every time and Honda does not require it. It is very important to get a mechanic that will throughly clean the bellhousing, shaft, guides, and linkage and then lube properly on assembly.

Thanks for the heads up guys. I'm gonna drop the car off at Honda sometime this week for a quote. Hopefully nothing over $1300.

My car is an '01 with 14K miles. I blame the clutch failure due to lots of stop & go traffic in the area that I live in. Still would have liked to get at least 30K out of the stock clutch
