Tried to put this guide on a few times,wasted a lot of time has it would not post.So this is my last go at it,thought i would try it in stages this time instead of one long thread,see if that helps.Call this part 0ne.
This is my guide to fitting a clutch on the fiat multipla 1.9JTD, i did this on my garden on axle stands.So anyone who can not afford to pay someone to do the job ,you can do it.Just give yourself 2-3 days,and dont rush it,giving the nuts and bolts thats you will be undoing blast of wd40 for a few days before might also help.
I have learnt the hard way and ended up doing my clutch and droping the gearbox 3 times,with this guide you wont have to.I found the cd workshop manuals very poor,hope this helps somebody.
Part one
First step is to losen both front wheels nuts,then jack up front of the car and place on axle stands,and take both wheels off.You will be dropping the subframe,so bear this in mind when when you place the axle stands under car.The higher higher you can get the car,the better it will be for you,thats where good axle stands and trolly jack come in.Also dont forget to stick bricks or wooden blocks under back wheels before jacking up.
Remove the plastic wheel arch from under the n/s front wheel arch.There are a few plastic button studs which you can prize out with a screwdriver.I used 2 screwdrivers one either side to pop them out,just go easy so you dont damage them.Also there are a few screws and a nut and wire which you need to undo,before you can drop it out.
Remove the battery,then the air filter needs to come out.
Undo the the airbox jublie clip to air intake pipe,then you can undo the two 10mm bolts at front of car holding air intake,now remove.
Then undo the airflow sensor clip at top of air box,now remove air box too.
Next you need to remove the battery tray,which i found was a pain.I had a lot of trouble with the top front bolt on mine,plenty of wd40.You have 2 top bolts front and rear,another one at top holding bracket that holds wires,then 2 under the tray if i am right.You will be glad when tray comes off.
Down on the n/s front corner of car is the inter-cooler,remove both rubber pipes,there will be clips on top pipe which holds some of the cars wiring which you need to undo.
