    Hi guys,

    I bought a Seat Cordoba 2000 model and the seller said the clutch/ gearbox bearings are needing attention. how much would it cost to fix it as i was told €150 by the seller.

    i prefer second opinions

    If it is the clutch release bearing you are referring to, you would be as well to replace clutch assembly as a 3 piece kit at same time. Around E80 for the kit (pressure plate, friction plate and bearing) from a reputable brand and E90-E120 labour would be a fair price.

    Get a couple of quotes by local mechanics
    probably be more than 150 as the gear box has to be taken off.

    inc parts expect 300+ and hope the gearbox is ok or thats another 400+
    hope you got the car for nothing or this could be expensive paying someone to work on it

    well i bought the car for €650 dropped him from €800 with a completed NCT that passed last month. the bearings can be heard when the clutch is not engaged. and when driving the car tends to stutter abit.

    im not in the money right now but am really concerned about it as i need the car to get to college. i live outside the city and public transport is not worth the money.
