Hi
From the phot not certain, but that looks more like a gear linkage to the box. Looking online it suggests the Ka clutch slave cylinder is inside the gearbox (which seems like a really stupid idea to me so not convinced it is true).
A thrust bearing can continue to work for a while once it is on the way out. However it will probably be busy cutting its way through the cltuch and will probably fail in style.
All the best

i would guess the thrust bearing is either on its way out or failing in some decription, as the chap above said only way of confirming problem is to remove the box and once the box is removed i would recommend replacing clutch regardless as 30k is over half the life of a clutch and to buy a thrust bearing on its own and not replace clutch is asking for trouble, anyway and costs a fraction of the labour charges to remove box, guess bout 60-70pounds for a kit. anyway enough of my dribble and gud luck dude |

That depends on the garage, I did my apprenticeship at a Honda main dealer and I dare not ask how much they would charge, 3 years ago I was working at a small garage in Sheffield and they would charge about £100 labour for that job and not load the parts cost very much.
Also the garage will pay a percentage less for the parts than you can get them for
I do recommend you keep well away from 'reconditioned' clutches....

The 4 rivets on the friction plate were hitting inside the spring plate... It made some interesting noises

For car clutches you can't go wrong with LUK, Sachs(oem BMW) or Valeo(oem Citroen/Peugeot)
The one pictured above was EBC, very strange as their brakes and bike clutches are first rate |

I use EBC yellowstuff on the car with ATE discs and it gets semi-regular track day abuse... I prefer them to both freodo and mintex (both more expensive for a decent compound).
Horses for courses though I guess... |
