how much would that cost and if it goes what can it do to car
its a case of gear box out and replace it and depending how long your clutch has been in you minds well put a new one in

costly then
i think the realease bearing is around £40-£50 from rufe at volvo
thanks very much
it all depends if you can do the job your self if you can it wont cost you more than £300 for a new clutch kit and new fluid if the box looses any

Sorry to throw potentail spanner in here guys, but usually the bearing makes no noise while the car is sitting there as the bearing has no load on it. When the clutch is pressed this causes the bearing to sit on the spring plate and start spinning, hence if the bearing is shot you hear it under load. You might not here the noise whilst travelling as the engine noise and wind noise will be greater. I dont think I would worry about it just yet.
