Could anyone please give me some advice on how to do this, whether I need anything special to do it and if you have any diagrams or anything? I have done this before but only on a rear wheel drive. ThanksClutch change on a citroen xantia 1.9 TD 1997?
Not a very nice job.FWD clutches usually a bit more troublesome than the in line RWD ones. You really need to follow a manual of some sort as there are numerous things to disconnect before lowering engine on LH side and removing box.Loosen both drive-shaft nuts before jacking car up and removing front wheels. My tip is to disconnect lower suspension joints on both sides and remove both drive-shafts completely, after draining gearbox oil into clean container.( RH shaft has two awkward bolts at support bearing)Tie hubs back with rope to ease shaft and g'box refitting. Careful with the speedo drive rubber %26quot;wedge%26quot; Check release fork and arm is OK. and be careful not to dislodge release bearing as you refit g'box .You can centralise pressure plate on flywheel by eye and touch. Take care not to stretch any hydraulic pipes when you lower the engine.Good luck!!Clutch change on a citroen xantia 1.9 TD 1997?
