Part: Clutch

Open and lift the bonnet. Now proceed to remove the panel covering the engine to access the lower part. To do this, you will also need to remove the large fan located behind the radiator. Next, remove the yellow fan, which often causes noise and vibrations. Then, remove the belt and pulleys from the belt circuit, allowing you to extract the base of the fan that was causing the noise and vibrations. Replace the affected parts and retrace the steps described above in reverse for reassembly.
