Update:
$250. Turned out the clutch master cylinder was leaking, so I had to replace the clutch master cylinder. The clutch went mushy really quick. Within 2 days, the clutch feel was gone 80%. Seems like the leak was pretty bad.

Good news is that it wasn't the clutch and clutch bleed was included in the replacement job. Now on to bleeding my breaks and changing the radiator fluid...

Solved:


Not my picture above, but it looks the same but darker, like my soul. Not the clutch.

I'll go get my clutch fluid flush and replace. $70 or so.

I must say, the clutch on our car lasts forever. If this was an evo, I would have replaced the clutch twice by now.

I'm at 78k on my 2003 and seems like the clutch is about to give out in a bit.

I hate calling the dealerships, but I'm new to the area, so I did, and these guys are joke. One service adviser at Chris Well didn't even know what S2000 was (asked me three times). I asked him if the pressure plate was included with the price $1732.59, and he said he didn't know what pressure plate was and begin to read from the screen. What sort of service adviser don't about these? They should know how to replace the damn thing by heart!


Anyway, obviously, I'm not paying $1732.59 + tax to get my clutch replaced. Any good shop around this area (I'm in germantown MD) that could do a good pressure plate job for less? I'll probably buy ACT organic.

Thanks!

Was not aware that replacing a clutch required clutch fluid . I've been doing it wrong.

Never need to drain the tranny. Just drop it.

Ouch. Over $600 labor for a clutch replacement.

Too bad you guys are up north.

Ptuning....although I am having an issue with my newly installed ACT clutch making a chirping noise (man are the ACT support guys do the bare minimum when trying to get help). The Ptuning guys recommended on the weekend that if I want to get it to stop, replace the ACT bearings with OEM bearings, which Ptuning can order for you as well. Make sure you get an alignment done after you have the clutch done.

Yeah.. Gotta factor in the overhead the dealership has and what not. That's actually pretty cheap IMO.
