The installation steps for the Citroën Peugeot clutch kit are similar to those for ordinary vehicles, but specific details may vary depending on the model. Here is a general installation procedure: Preparation Prepare appropriate tools such as wrenches of various specifications, sockets, hexagon socket wrenches, torque wrenches, etc., as well as a new clutch kit including a clutch pressure plate, clutch disc, release bearing, etc. Park the vehicle on a flat and solid ground, pull up the handbrake, turn off the engine, and disconnect the negative cable of the battery.Remove related components •  Raise the vehicle and support it securely. Usually, a jack and support stands are needed to lift the front or rear of the vehicle for easy operation.  •  Remove the connecting bolts between the drive shaft and the gearbox, take the drive shaft off the gearbox, and mark it properly to ensure correct reinstallation.  •  Remove the fixing bolts between the gearbox and the engine, separate the gearbox from the engine, and carefully remove the gearbox, placing it in a suitable position.For some vehicle models, it may be necessary to remove the clutch cable or hydraulic lines. If it is a cable-operated clutch, locate the clutch cable and disconnect it from the clutch pedal or release fork; if it is a hydraulic clutch, it is necessary to drain the hydraulic oil and remove the line connections between the clutch master cylinder and slave cylinder.  •  Remove the fixing bolts of the clutch pressure plate, which are usually located between the clutch cover and the flywheel. Use a wrench to gradually loosen and remove these bolts in a diagonal order, then take off the clutch pressure plate and the clutch disc.  •  Remove the old release bearing from the release fork.Install a new clutch kit •  Check if the flywheel surface is flat and clean. If there is wear, scratches, oil stains, etc., it needs to be cleaned or repaired. At the same time, check if the crankshaft pilot bearing is in good condition; if it is damaged, it needs to be replaced.  •  Apply a thin layer of grease to the spline grooves of the clutch disc, then carefully slide the clutch disc onto the first shaft of the gearbox, paying attention to the installation direction of the clutch disc. For some Citroën and Peugeot models, the side of the clutch disc with the code PSA XXX XXX 80 must face the gearbox side.Install the release bearing onto the release fork, ensuring that the bearing can rotate flexibly. Apply an appropriate amount of grease to the contact surface between the release fork and the release bearing.  •  Install the clutch pressure plate, align the pressure plate with the mounting holes on the flywheel, and then install the fixing bolts. Gradually tighten the bolts in a diagonal sequence; the tightening torque should comply with the vehicle's repair manual. Generally, the tightening torque for the clutch pressure plate fixing bolts is usually around 20-30N・m.  •  If the clutch cable or hydraulic lines were removed earlier, they need to be reconnected and adjusted properly. For hydraulic clutches, it is also necessary to add hydraulic oil and perform a bleeding operation to ensure the hydraulic system works normally.Install the transmission and other components Reinstall the transmission onto the engine and tighten the fixing bolts between the transmission and the engine. Install the drive shaft, correctly connect the drive shaft to the transmission, and tighten the connecting bolts. Connect the negative battery cable. Finally, check if all installed components are secure, if there are any missing bolts or other parts, and after ensuring everything is normal, lower the vehicle.Inspection and Debugging •  Check if the stroke of the clutch pedal is normal. If the stroke is too large or too small, it can be adjusted by modifying the length of the push rod of the clutch master cylinder or slave cylinder.  •  Start the engine, press down the clutch pedal, check whether the clutch can engage and disengage normally, whether the gear shifting is smooth, and whether there are problems such as jamming or abnormal noise.  •  Check the return situation of the clutch pedal to ensure that the pedal can return quickly and completely.

When installing a Citroën Peugeot clutch kit, in addition to the key points mentioned in the above steps, there are the following precautions:Accessory Selection and Inspection •  Ensure accessory compatibility: Choose clutch kits produced by regular manufacturers that meet the vehicle model and technical requirements. You can refer to the vehicle user manual or consult professional maintenance technicians to ensure the compatibility of the accessories.  •  Check accessory quality: Carefully inspect the quality of each component of the new clutch kit, such as whether the friction material of the clutch disc has cracks, excessive wear, etc., whether the surface of the pressure plate is flat, and whether the release bearing can rotate flexibly.Details of Installation Operation •  Correct Cleaning Method: Do not clean clutch components with a dry brush, as this can easily generate dust and affect the performance of the clutch. It is recommended to use a water-dampened cloth for cleaning.  •  Avoid Component Deformation: When disassembling the clutch, operations should be performed using a bench vise or special tooling to prevent deformation of the clutch cover and ejection of parts. When removing the clutch from the flywheel, carefully check and re-mark the original marks on the clutch cover and balance shims if necessary; before disassembling the clutch, make assembly marks on the clutch cover and pressure plate to avoid disrupting the balance.Correct use of tools: Special tools must be used during installation. For example, use a special tool or the transmission input shaft to align the driven disc with the transmission shaft guide bearing to ensure accurate installation.  •  Pay attention to the installation direction: The clutch disc has direction requirements and must not be installed backwards. For some Citroën and Peugeot models, the side of the clutch disc with the code PSA XXX XXX 80 must face the gearbox side.  •  Applying grease: Base grease should be applied to the contact surface between the release fork and the release bearing, all fulcrums, bearing surfaces, and during the assembly of the release bearing. However, it should be noted that butter must not be applied to exposed areas to avoid affecting the movement of components after dust adheres to them.Debugging and Inspection after Installation •  Adjusting the Clutch Clearance: After installation, adjust the clutch clearance to ensure smooth operation without slipping or jittering. Meanwhile, set the free travel of the clutch pedal to 15mm-25mm.  •  Inspecting the Hydraulic System: For hydraulic clutches, check the hydraulic system for leaks and promptly address any leaks if found.  •  Conducting Test Drives: Start the vehicle, press the clutch pedal, check if the clutch can engage and disengage normally, if shifting is smooth, and if there are any issues such as jamming or abnormal noises. Take a short test drive to check if the clutch works stably.
