Also I looked on the ETK for the possible cost of a replacement part,
and it costs about $60, not including labor, which might be most part
of the total cost.

Please shop the internet for the part because you can easily find
one for about $35 US. The OEM brand is Sachs.

I hope we're all not losing sight of the fact that the actual cost of
the throwout/thrust bearing pales into insignificance beside the cost
of the labor to fit it. Whether it's $30 or $60 is kinda moot.
