Clutch: Service and Repair

Replacement

1. Remove a transaxle assembly (refer to 'MT'-group).
2. Remove the clutch cover bolts. Not to be bent or twisted, loosen them in diagonal directions.




3. Remove the clutch cover and disc.
4. Using the SST(09411-43000), install a clutch disc and cover.

CAUTION:
- Replace a clutch cover and disc as a set.

* Possible problems when not following the caution
- When replacing only a disc, slip problem can occur because of the initial clamp load loss by the adjusting ring's unusual work.
- When replacing only a disc, it can be difficult to cut power because the thickness of the disc cannot be permitted.
- Apply grease on a disc spline part and transmission input shaft spline part as required.

* Possible problems when not following
- When not applying: Excessively wear of splines and bad clutch operation
- When excessively applying: Scattered grease by centrifugal force conteminates the clutch disc. Loss of friction force can cause a slip
- The 'T/M SIDE' marked surface should face the transaxle.
-> If the surface face the opposite side, there can be an interference between a disc and a flywheel surface.




5. Tighten the clutch cover.

Tightening torque :
24.5 - 35.3Nm (2.5 - 3.6kgf.m, 18.1 - 26.0lb-ft) (6EA)


CAUTION:
When installing the clutch cover, tighten the bolts in diagonal directions not to be bent or twisted.





CAUTION:
* Possible problems when not following
- When tightening the bolt completely at a time: the clutch cover can be twisted and vibration can occur.
- On vehicles with self adjusting clutches, it is necessary to follow this caution.
- Not following tightening torque: There can be bad torque transmission in clutch and relaxation possibility of bolts.
