Micra clutch

No1 daughter's K11 micra needs a new clutch.

Guess who's got to do it?

Has anyone done this or have any tips apart from get someone else to do it?

Cheers

Chris

It's not a small job because the transmission has to come out, which means removing the driveshafts.....

I've always paid someone to do it..... and I hate paying out for people to do things I can....

i have done one started at 10am was done by 12:30pm.

can be a little fiddly because everything is small.

all i can say is if you have ever worked on a fiat then this will be easy.

the micra box is pretty light compared to something like a type 9.

little tip. mark the clutch cable position with tip-ex or something as they are a buggar to get right. they have a tendancy to snatch as you pull away if you get it wrong.
