I would say any fiat van main dealer would do it for you. If you post your location, someone may be able to help you

Where are you located?
Is your Ducato, a van build, coachbuild or an a class?
This info would help a better response.

Out of curiosity, how many kms are on your ducato? Just asking for reference for our own.

When I had to get my clutch changed there was only 28,000 miles but it was the clutch slave cylinder that went but we changed the clutch as well then the timing belt and water pump so the engine has had a full service and rebuild , our van is 07 I blame it on not being used during the winter but now we use it all year round

Hi All

I am based in the Belfast area , the Motorhome is a coach built McClouis Glen 690 with 30,000 miles the clutch seams to slip when i go into top gear and try accelerate so I am assuming its a new clutch required,

@ davieboy,
Im not sure of your 07 has adjustment on the clutch cable,
My 01 has an adjuster on the cable (on the top of the gearbox)
Hopefully an adjustment may sort you

Hi I’ve just seen your post while searching for information on getting a new clutch fitted. I’m near Belfast too. Did you get sorted and where ? Also would you be able to give me a rough idea of cost. Thanks
