Clutch change

[Amirclio]

Is changing a clucth a simple unbolt and bolt new on procedure? Removed one today, seems pretty simple when the engine is out, any tips guys?

if youre talking about literally just putting the new clutch on then yeah it is - the difficult thing is getting the gearbox etc off. The only other thing is to make sure you align it properly but that's not too difficult - especially if the engine is out of the car.

Cool,

Yeah the engine will be out as its comming out the white hybrid into the tungston valver. Along with a new gearbox and replacement clutch. Got the haynes manual out, seems pretty straight forward.

yeah it really is, should take you all of about 5 mins tbh - will be so much easier with the engine out than in.

Make sure its aligned!
If you get a genuine clutch kit it has a clutch alignemt tool with it.

No need to buy a clutch alignment tool, a finger will surfice, or do it by eye if its out, or failing that an entension bar wrapped round with insulation tape
