Hi, does anyone know roughly how much it would cost at a garage to fit a clutch and gearbox on a ST150, also does the subframe need to be dropped off the car to be able to remove the clutch and gearbox?

    St 150 gear selector stiff. This is a common problem and caused by the pivot pin that the plate moves on. The hole in the plate and the pin get warm and become hard to move. When you push the gear stick the cables move the plate about. You need to get the car jacked up on axle stands and take the clipped cover off under the engine gearbox. Pull the 2 gear cables off the plate and take the circlip off the pin (do not lose it). Take the plate off and use wet and dry to sand the pin down a bit. Grease the pin and put the plate back on so it moves freely and has a little bit of play in it. This is an easy job for a mechanic to do. There are YouTube videos on it.

    Cost wise I wouldn't have a clue. Subframe doesn't need to come off though, gearbox sits in front of it so to speak.
