94 st 105K

Just got a quote: 710$ including parts 200, labor 500 sth.

I think I paid to much for the car $3,000 if the clutch need to be changed soon.

What will happen if the clutch goes really bad?

Thanks

Well thats an AWFUL lot to do a clutch change. I think you should definately get at least a second opinion if not a third.

Also, thats LOW mileage for an 94 so 3,000 is definately not too much.

And the easiest way to tell if your clutch is close to on its way out is where in the pedal travel the clutch is engaging. Which means, when your lifting your foot off the clutch, how far can the clutch pedal come up before the car starts moving? If it is almost all the way up and its not moving yet (engaging) then your clutch is pretty worn. If the pedal is close to the floor and you feel the clutch engaging, its newer.
