Alternator went out on my car yesterday. Got stranded in Brandywine. Didn't have time to do the replacement myself. Had the car towed to Myers Auto Service in Waldorf. Car is back in the driveway with a new alternator and belt. I am now .
When I picked the car up, they told me that the clutch felt "weak" and that they thought that if I babied it, I could make it another year. They were just giving me a "heads up". With 128K miles on the car, I have been expecting to need to replace it for a year now.
Asked the shop how much, and they said they had a focus scheduled to have the clutch replaced tomorrow and quoted me $1100 to do it. Ouch. Last clutch I did was on a 1980 Camaro back in 1992 or '93. Anybody ever do a clutch on a focus or other small front wheel drive car? How hard?
