To replace the clutch on an Audi A3, lift the car with a jack to loosen the bolts securing the left front wheel. Once the wheel is removed along with the appropriate wheel arch liner, you can access the internal components.

Remove the gearbox by unscrewing the screws that secure it next to the engine block and disconnecting the connectors. This will allow you to locate the clutch between the engine block and the gearbox.

Unscrew the bolts to detach it from the corresponding diaphragm spring and replace it with a new one.
