Default Tor2 in the garage...

Getting it's brakes done.
It needs the rear near-side calliper replaced. And the system bled. The price was £120 for the calliper, and I'm hoping that they'll bleed the system on top of that for free?

Also, the long term clutch thing I've had, I'm going to get them to look into that. It could just be oil on the clutch, but would it make sense to get them to just replace the clutch while they're in there? I suppose this one will depend a bit more on how worn the clutch is.

And finally, I've got a thermostat to go on. Because I thought mine was well gone. The heaters don't heat up that hot, I'm sure they used to get a lot hotter.
There's a bolt/screw broke so I can't get the old thermo off, I'm hoping they'll just whip the old thermo and replace it.
Obviously I wouldn't want them to do this if the thermostat is good, but due to the broken bolt, the hard part is getting in to the possibly damaged thermostat.
Is there any other way of checking the thermostat is screwed than getting right in there?
