Clutch disc 2,718.75
Pressure plate 3,155.46
Release bearing 1,158.39
Transaxle Oil 819.28
Rear Crankshaft -??- 1,436.57

Labor (incl. refacing
of flywheel) 4,235.00
----------
13,523.45 + VAT = 14,875.80!!

Any comments? Sulit ba na sa Toyota ko ipagawa?

sir,
based on the facts provided, i am pretty sure na clutch na ang papalitan.
if you can afford it, go for all original. any reputable shop can do that in under a day.
or this is what i can suggest:

1. use asco pressure plate, it is much softer than origs
2. use original cluth disc. it will last you longer than replacements
3. use replacement release bearings (usually NTN or KOYO brand). toyota does not manufacture their own bearings. they let others manufacture it for them and stamp TOYOTA on it.
4.replace your rear crankshaft oil seal even if it does not have a leak since you will be paying the same labor even if you do not replace it. it will save you on another labor charge in case it leaks before you change your clutch again in the future. go for originals.
5. replace gear oil if you think its due for replacement
6. shops usually charge under 2th for the labor of clutch replacement
7. reface flywheel
8. expect hidden damages such as drive shaft oil seal, rear engine support, transmission support, etc.

i hope this helps....
