Need new clutch - dealer or indie shop - NYC suggestions?
After 50K of mostly Manhattan miles, it's finally time to replace my clutch - I was hoping to get a bit more, but unfortunately I wasn't the only one to drive my 8. I figure I have at least 3 times the wear that a highway driver sees due to stop and go traffic. parallel parking, etc.
My choice is to bring to Wayne Mazda (which is a pain for me, but I wouldn't trust the Manhattan dealer) or to an independent shop. One local shop gave me a quote of $1200 including all parts.
Any suggestions? If I do go the dealer route - I wonder if there will be any TSB's I can get done - recently It seems sometimes the clutch peddle sinks to the floor till the car warms up - can the slipping be connected to that?
Thanks
