For that price, I hopew they changed the slave cylinder at the same time.  Apparently it is normal to change this when doing a clutch change.

The thrust bearing is normally the offending article that causes these noises.

Very true.

Also if it has a dual mass flywheel can cause the same noise and they are not cheap.

wonder why they replaced the clutch AND  the flywheel ,  both cant have been duff .  if its making a shrieking noise ,something is definitely wrong  , its even possible to fit the clutch disc  the wrong way round and that makes a really bad squealing noise . the only trouble is to look at the clutch to find the problem needs it taking out again .HOWEVER ITS THEIR PROBLEM, NOT YOURS

Is it possible to pay for an AA inspection and report. Gives you some ammo.
