[Vwdiesel] re A3 clutch job

[greg rich]

I have done a couple of clutches on A3 Jettas with the turbo diesel (CDN
cars), I found removing the shift linkage bracket or arm made the removal
alot easier and used a chain hoist to lower it to the ground.
Make sure the axles are disconnected, you may need to undo a balljoint
inorder to get it out of the way, remove the shiter rods and three bolts in
the rear diff area holding the arm to the trans (really long bolts, three in
a row down the back of the trans), undo the trans mount, remove the starter
and front mount. You have to move the trans at an angle to clear various
parts but it will come out, the trickiest part is getting it off the
flywheel
Hope this helps, Greg
