Can anyone tell me what a "volante motor y embraque" is please?
I've tried Babel Fish but am none the wiser!
I need one but don't know what it is!

Thanks. The clutch is what it went in for and the volante is an unpleasant surprise!
They did show me a wheel thingy under the car, but I couldn't tell what it was attached to or what it does. Its costing €600+ (on top of €700 for the clutch), so I'm quite interested to find out what I'm paying for!

the flywheel and the clutch work together as a team. If the clutch need replacing it is usual to at least resurface the flywheel, or else replace it.
It depends on the car, and the damage that has been done to the flywheel. If they replaced the clutch and didn't repair or replace the flywheel you would get very short life from the replaced clutch.
They will probably replace the master and slave cylinders as well.
As to the price, without knowing model and make, can't say, but i'm sure that you don't have it at the main dealer and at a repair shop instead!

is it the diesel version? they give a lot of flywheel problems. if its the same dealer as you bought it from, then jump up and down and scream. 4 years for it too last is too short.
the flywheel price is about right for a main dealer, but still shout and scream.
It might not help, but you will feel better
