Removal and installation the clutch assembly (Hyundai Accent MC)

Removal

1. Remove the manual transmission

2. Install the centering mandrel into the front bearing of the manual transmission input shaft (installed in the crankshaft).



3. Loosen the screws that secure the casing to the flywheel, loosening them gradually in a certain order. This means that the screws should be loosened in pairs, loosening the opposite screws by 2-3 turns for each stage of loosening in order to prevent the casing from becoming distorted.

Caution: Do not use paint thinners to clean the driven disc or bearing.

Checking the condition of clutch components

4. Check the surface of the pressure plate for damage.

5. Check the damper springs and the working surface of the driven disk for damage, weakening and fatigue failure.

6. Using a caliper, measure the depth of the rivet heads (B) and the thickness (A) of the driven disc.

Minimum permissible values: A= 8.5±0.3 mm; B = 0.3 mm.

If these dimensions are less than the minimum permissible values, replace the driven disk.



7. Check the bearing for damage, wear and noise.

Installation

8. Apply grease to the splines of the driven disk.

Caution: Do not apply too much grease, as this may result in grease being forced onto the working surface of the driven disc by centrifugal force.

9. Using a centering mandrel, install the driven disk onto the flywheel.



10. Install the cover on the flywheel and tighten the mounting screws in the specified sequence in several stages. Tightening torque: 15-22 Nm.



11. Apply grease to the fork support (4), to the spherical tip of the rod at the point of contact (6) with the clutch release fork, to the ends of the fork at the point of contact (5) with the clutch release bearing.

12. Install the gearbox.
