      No, never have. lot of work, but doable I'd say. Haynes manual reckons it can be done with the front on axle stands.

                Gutted, how much you found a kit for?

                Perhaps time to shift it on before it gets to bad?

                          Luk or Sachs is the OEM parts,,you'll need to sit down when you get quote ,,how bad is it slipping,,to get mine to slip,which is only slightly atm,,it only happens in 4th with foot hard down. I've only had one price which was 661 quid for Luk dual mass and Luk 3 piece clutch kit,this was from a local motor factors,not europarts,,,not too concerned about mine atm,but when it does get worse and chucks the towel I'll be changing it

                            Was also informed that the self adjusters in the clutch plate itself can get a little "sticky" with clutch dust ,and can give the impression of a slipping clutch until the adjuster finally clicks round,so maybe in my case the clutch is fine,I know things do fail,but thought it would have lasted longer than 49k mls
