As above really, how much does it cost to buy one?
I take it that it's also a bar steward to change?
Advise me!

It went on mine when i had the 1.2 8v. Me my brother and my mate changed it on the drive. took us 2 days in total waitin for parts and that. Gear box came off and it was easier to put a complete new clutch in for me. Got the parts cheap as fcuk. Messy job and a lot of mauling

Hmmm, well ive had a new clutch not too long ago, so not wasting money on a new one, but it definately has to come out?
Adam - I think its the opposite to the release bearing because it only makes a whining noise when the clutch is not depressed

make sure you change it in time though as when it does go it probs will take half your cluth with it like mine did. when took it all apart there where little tiny ball bearings all in the gearbox and the cluth waz fried.

surely the clutch you had in it came as a complete kit with release bearing, or have you put an aftermarket clutch in

thrust baring.... is this the clutch realise baring or the input shaft baring?
the clutch realise baring... the clutch would have to come out which wouldnt be be that hard cos the f20 gearbox has the inspection hatch...
if the input shaft baring on the gearbox.. then its gearbox out job... have fun doing that in the cramp corsa engine bay
