How do you replace the clutch on the Smart 453?

Model: Smart Smart 453 - Years 2014-2022
Part: Clutch

In order to replace the clutch of the Smart 453, the car must be lifted via a bridge so that its lower part can be accessed. Here it will be necessary to drain the oil inside the gearbox by unscrewing the drain plug. Subsequently, it will be necessary to access the part of the engine compartment, unscrewing the screws that secure the air filter box and then those that secure the gearbox. Furthermore, by removing the right front wheel and its shock absorber, the last bolts that fix the gearbox can be unscrewed; the latter can therefore be extracted allowing the clutch to be replaced.
