If it's a four wheel drive model there's a lot more involved than in a two wheel drive clutch job, I looked into doing it myself when my clutch was slipping and when I realised tyat tge transmission and transfer box would need to be dropped out gave up the idea. Expect the job to take around 7-8 hours in a fully equipped garage with lifts and experienced mechanics. I priced up the job on the basis that it would probably be cheaper to replace the car (mines a 2003) and mostly got quotes from £750 up but I found a place that did it for £450 including parts, labour, collection and return with a two year warrenty. I'm new on the site so I don't want to look like I'm spamming and I won't post their details but the job can be done at a reasonable price if you can find the right people.
