Hi all, after I finally figured out why my shifter was sticky 2 weeks later the clutch is going out I'm pretty sure. When I go to shift the car jumps in RPM's until it grabs into gear and then catches. I will probally be bringing it to a shop to have them fix the clutch. Any idea on how much its gonna cost or reccomdations on what clutch to buy or where to get one online. I'm only 18 and work 2 jobs so dropping the tranny out and fixing it myself is not looking very likley. The car is a 2003 Stratus RT Coupe with the 3.0 liter. I just need an estimite on how much its gonna cost and about how long the shop SHOULD take replacing it. All comments are recommended and appricated. Thanks!

 

I've seen labor and parts running in the 500-800 range. It's usually a pretty simple job, and depending on how many other cars your chosen mechanic has in front of you, should take no more than a full day. 100% depends on your mechanic, which can give you an cost and time estimate when you get there. Unless you're racing it, the OEM type clutch is good as any. The racing clutches tend to grab much quicker, making smoother starts and daily driving a little more difficult.
