or
Go to a clutch specialist as they have the special tools to do it without pulling the engine out, plus they arent making any money if they cant get it done in 2 hours...about $250.

Er, Ford Mondeo question...anyone ever changed a clutch on one of these WITHOUT taking the engine out???
Seems like ford have made it a ridiculously tricky and time consuming job to drop the clutch and put a new in, anyone have any experience of this? Costs? Toptips? Cheers in advance!|||was to big a job for me I had to get mine done in a garage, it cost just over £600.
the car was only worth £800 but unfortunatly I had it on HP so had no choice.|||You must drop the complete subframe before the gearbox comes out. It%26#039;s pretty straight forward once you get your head round it.
Get your ex to do it he must owe you one.|||This apparently was one of the few draw backs on the Mondeo that you did have to drop the engine to do the clutch - ot at least so I was always led to believe.|||No just drop the drive shaft and it will ease out and fix replacement in|||your right it is tricky but alas engine and sub frame has to be (not completely) removed but lowered enough to separate g/box .... fords Hmm
Mr clutch does a good cheapish job
PS don%26#039;t forget locating pins for sub frame|||Any other way is extreemly arkward , dont try it unless you have access to lifting gear and a hoist you can drop one side and lift box out ,But it does put a strain on the exuast and other fixtures . (not recomended.) but that is as bad as dropping the whole sub frame|||Going by experience of some mondeos I helped with the clutch whilst I was on work placement whilst at college studying motor vehicle engineering the quickest way t do a mondeo clutch is to take the exhaust off so it clears the sub frame, remove the lower suspension ball joints from the front hubs, remove the drive shafts support the engine from above remove the starter motor spedo cable clutch cable the upper bell housing bolts then under neath remove some engine/gearbox support brackets and remove the sub frame support the gearbox from underneath with a transmission jack remove the lower bell housing bolts and extract the gearbox and you can then remove the clutch refitting is reverse of removal

How do you change a clutch on a toyota yaris?
toyota yaris|||If you are asking how to change a clutch, it%26#039;s probaly best you don%26#039;t get involved in that job. It%26#039;s a fairly big job and you should have a professial do it. Have you ever dropped a transmission on a front wheel drive before? you could seriously hurt yourself or at the least cost yourself a lot more money then you actually have to pay.|||don%26#039;t bother doing it urself have a shop or dealer do it. if the dealer does it, it will come with at least 1yr warranty on parts and labor.|||by taking it to Toyota dealership|||Take it to a garage and tell the mechanic you need a new clutch.|||If you have never replaced a clutch in a front wheel drive vehicle, this is not the vehicle to start with. Yaris is only been out 1 1/2 years and there is probably no manual available for it yet. You should just take it to your nearest Toyota dealership and let them fix it for you.|||its alot of work and you better buy a chiltons manual and is to much to explain here|||It%26#039;s easy, drop the gearbox, unbolt the clutch and stick the new one in it%26#039;s place! If your lucky you%26#039;ll have loads of spares left at the end as well.
Of course the most cost effective option would be to take it to a decent mechanic and ask him/her to do the job for you. It will take a tenth of the time, and should have some sort of guarantee

Anyone know how to change a clutch cable in an 89 twinwheel transit PLEASE?
look its easy first check were the transmission is located if its on the left of the engine or right or under the gear stick .
second locate the cable on the clutch pedal get helper and tell him to press the clutch pedal and look for movement to locate the clutch cable.once you have located it take it off by pressing the clutch pedal down and with pair of pliers uncliping it/unbolt it from the transmission end.(always remember the cables route mark it if you need to)theres a cerclip at the pedal stopping the cable to come off take that off and the cable will slide off.
refitting it start feed the cable to the pedal and attach it to the pedal and secure it with the clip then feed the cable to the transmission garbing the end of cable with pair of pliers and pulling it until its in its position.|||your best bet is to try to find a repair manual or contact the manufacturer|||I%26#039;ve never tried on a twin wheel but on a 89 single wheel...
From underneath first undo the cable from the Gearbox end
Depending which gearbox is fitted it%26#039;s either a adjuster that needs to be slackened and taken of or you can wedge something behind the arm and jemmy it off..That%26#039;s the easy part, When the cable is disconnected from the Gearbox you need to realease it from the pedal end take care to have the drivers side footwell clean because there is a clip which attaches the cable to pedal and if you loose that you will have to go to a car spares shop or a breakers yard.
Once the cable is disconnected you need to go in the engine bay and take the whole cable from the bulkhead then it should be free to fall to the floor.... refitting is a reversal of removal........................Good Luck

Anybody every changed a clutch on a mondao?
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.

How to change a clutch in a........?
