What clutch for an N/A and is it an easy job?

[tomac1975]

Hi folks,

just had the yearly MOT and was advised by Ben at Steve Williams that my clutch is on the way out. As I've just got married I can't really afford another trip to Steve so was wondering if anyone knows what parts and tools I would need, and how easy it would be to replace myself?

Cheers,

Tom.

Was a clutch plate and pressure plate on ebay if that helps, also think they were selling them on aftersales

Lotus Aftersales:

A100Q6002F Clutch Driven Plate-NA
A100Q6009F Clutch Pressure Plate-NA
They are 10 quid each + VAT

The set on eBay is 19.99 + 29.99.

Remember, these are for the NA model, not the Turbo.

Excellent, how do I order off the aftersales list?

Aftersales ordering is a bit more complicated.

I have been instructed to contact my dealer and have them place the order with Lotus quoting the Aftersales price.

The parts will be sent to them at the correct price and you pay the dealer when you collect them. My dealer usually gets his orders on Friday and so far, everything has worked smoothly.

If it helps, I use

I posted the most current Aftersales list under Elan Parts - for sale here: viewtopic.php?f=3&t=21104

The list is getting smaller each time they edit it.
