seven hours of labour at £39 per hour is what I was charged at my local garage to change the clutch in our Renault Scenic. Comments anyone?

This should be done every 36000mil or 60000 km to be sure, they are rated to last as long as 100km but you needs to take driving habits into consideration.
Every 60,000 miles...
6-8 hours, depending on how busy the garage is....it isn't a long job, bit like changing the elastic band on a hoover :D Im waiting to go and have a look at my first car, but need 2 wait for the cambelt to be fitted.....
72000 miles was what the chap at Honda told me
Manufactuer says every 100000 miles, although leaving it this long would be risking it a bit.
normally 60k. if your car is 16v then do it do it. If you (unlikely) have a timing chain you could go longer. ask ford
Follow the manufactures recommendations as outlined in your owners manual.
The cambelt should be changed every 100,000 miles on a Toyota Townace. If the light is on that is signifying that there may be something wrong with it so it should be checked as soon as possible.
it's the immobilizer that deactivates if you don't swap the batteries over quickly enough, and it's only in some keys, you usually have at least minute or two.
Ours does not have a spare (cos the extra 2 seats are under the boot cover) but a bottle of "gel" that should seal a small puncture for long enough to let you pump the tyre and get to a garage for a spare. JJ
