Let's see how to replace the clutch on a Hyundai IX35. First, disconnect the turbo and remove the fuel pump along with its electrical connections. Remove the air filter and take off the engine cover by unscrewing the 12 mm bolts holding it in place.

Remove the upper grille to create as much space as possible. You will also need to remove the battery and its tray.

Disconnect the earth connection, taking care not to lose the bolts. Try to go as low as possible, so remove as many components as necessary to reach the clutch.

If it becomes difficult, take note of what you remove until you reach the clutch. Remove the central bush.

Naturally, there will be rusted and difficult parts that will need lubrication, and you may need mechanical assistance, such as hammers or pliers. Bleed the fluid, collecting and disposing of it properly.

Be very careful with the electrical connectors; if unsure, tape them up to avoid damage. This is an extremely complex operation that requires specific skills.

Although the act of changing the clutch may seem straightforward, getting to it is very complex, and reassembling everything in the correct order can be very, very challenging.
