Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Discussions that suspect a cause: 1

0 original-poster resolution reports. Counts can overlap; they are not unique people or a success rate.

0 discussions have direct query context; 0 report a fix in that context. Other evidence may inherit the discussion’s subject.

Suspected cause
I suspect the OPC price will be getting on for £1000.

Suggestion
I'd also recommend Mike as he's done a few jobs on my motor, and oddly enough, I reckon I'm in the market for a new clutch too, so it's useful to know how much this is going to cost me, and it's not as bad as I first thought...(reckoned on it being a couple hundred quid more, which I guess it would be if I went to an OPC).

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Dear Seasoned Hands, Pulling up a steep ramp in first in a queue yesterday got a bit of a whiff from the back of he car - which might of course be my lousy clutch control.

POST 7Original post

That's a pretty competitive price. The JZ Machtech price for a clutch fitted is £842.95. I suspect the OPC price will be getting on for £1000. Terry
