i heard you have to take out the enging is that true?|||The engine has to be lifted to draw the gearbox mounting bolts which are fitted before the engine.
So in a nutshell, yes.
We source out jobs like this to garages that specialise in doing certain makes of car.|||the car needs to be on a ramp. the hole engine and box has to be dropped down in a cage.before you can even start to strip the clutch out.one hell of anight mere job.|||There is two ways of doing it, first remove the engine from the engine bay. Second method is to jack the car up, drop the front sub frame and then lower the engine and gear box out under the car.
Ja.|||apparently not! according to my husband who deals with clutches 6 days a week ;)|||No , there%26#039;s a special frame that fit%26#039;s between the inner wings to support the engine and box while the subfame is lowered to gain access to the gear box....|||If you don%26#039;t have access to a hoist or ramps then it may be easier to pull the engine. But no you don%26#039;t have to. It Will be fiddly though and most shops will do the job at a reasonable cost.
