Recommendation for clutch change please

[Tio64]

Hi all.
Asking for friends.

Two friends of mine have gone halves on a 2012 Hymer B544 A Class, Fiat based with a 2.3 engine. One of them is now making use of it but has detected clutch slip, so he's planning on getting it changed.

One friend lives nr Coleshill, North Warwickshire, the other is south coast, near Lymington.

Can anyone recommend a good, competent garage that could do a clutch change, near either of these locations, please?

Also, can anyone confirm, would this be an engine out job?

Many thanks for any replies.

I cannot recommend them as I have not used them but www.essanjay.co.uk in Poole may be worth checking out as they seem to do most types of Motorhome repairs.

In Christchurch are pretty good and well priced

The engine does not need removing, you take off front nearside wheel, unbolt the suspension and remove driveshaft. Then you can remove the gearbox JUST but only just. Booked at about 12 hours to do the job

Many thanks indeed for those.

If anyone has any recommendations in or near North Warwickshire, or Birmingham, that would be great.

Gloucester road gearboxes in Bristol. 5 min walk to the main railway station and direct train to Birmingham in just over an hour for about £20. They did mine about 18 months ago along with a gearbox repair.
