Reliability of Replacement Clutch Parts

[Mike2]

We own a Mitsu Strada and it's time to have the clutch replaced. Ok lang po ba kung replacement parts ang gamitin instead of OEM? Thanks.

[sauman]

well pagdating sa clutch assembly, I always go for the genuine parts, mahirap din kasing baklasin ang buong clutch assembly kung hindi maging maganda ang performance nung replacement parts. last month lang pinapalitan ko ng clutch assembly yung corolla ng utol ko at ganito nga rin ang sabi nung trusted mechanic ko. Also mahirap nang magbayad ulit for labor costs

oem parts are manufactured not by the car company itself, suppliers din gumagawa nyan. the only difference is the packaging. so if japan made ang car mo at made in japan din naman ang replacement parts, imho pareho din yan sa oem. just beware of fakes made in taiwan.

[ryan_pogi]

yep, replacements are fine as long its japan-made.

[rodcarolino]

ask the store you are buying from, tanong mo kung meron silang orig, japan, taiwan saka magandang replacement, kung wala wala silang mapagkumparahan wag kang bumili dun. sasabihin lang sa iyo na japan yung binibenta nila, which may be not...

[yebo]

yup, korek ka dyan rod! pag sinabi sa iyo na japan lahat tinda nila, malamang fake yun. good auto parts store will give you a choice between made in japan, korea and taiwan parts. they will even explain to you how to spot the fake taiwan in fake oem packaging.

You can always go with reputable brands like Exedy of Japan. OEM supplier din sila.

just had our L300 clutch replaced. 2 bearings and clutch disk or pad ba tawag dun, basta 4 na pyesa ang pinalitan inabot ng almost 4th. mga pyesa(japan), labor naman is 1200. Sa kanya kasi kami lagi nagpapagawa, mura na kaya ito?

[chieffy]

CZintrclr reasonable price na yan...minsan merong pa ngang Php 900-1000...

[CZintrclr]

chieffy, 900 - 1000 lang? 1200 charge labor sa akin, eh di mdyo napamahal pala ako, kala ko pa naman mura na.

[OTEP]

Ano-ano ba dapat nang isabay kapag nagpalit ng clutch disc para isang operasyon na lang? Thanks.

[rodcarolino]

clutch disk, pressure plate, release bearing and pilot bearing. baka kailangan din ipa reface yung flywheel kung may tama, yoke kung tama din

[Ungas]

Buti sa inyo mura, nung nagpapalit ako dati umabot ng 3000 labor. Basta raw may transfer case doble price agad.

[pajerokid]

Exedy is very good. :D

[roydok]

We just had the clutch of our 4JG2 Trooper replaced sa casa at inabot ng 17k.

[pajerokid]

W.O.W.

I had my clutch replaced for 4000 bucks.... with free overhaul! :D

sinabi mo, yung sa akin inusod lang para madukot dahil pag binaba baka mahirapan na itaas uli. 3000 din ang siningil sa akin, trabahador ng casa, homeservice... 17+ din inabot, itinabi ko nga yung pinagpalitan at ipapasuri ko sa sanglaan baka kasi may halong ginto

[phillipogi]

para sa honda, ano ok na replacement parts ng clutch?

[pajerokid]

Exedy. :D

We usually try to stick to OE Mbut if its a brand like Exedy, its OK. I also tried the ASCO brand (Japan) in our Corolla and it seems to be working quite well and a visual inspection will show that its quality is good IMO.
