First, for the 2011 and earlier models, turn the steering wheel to the full lock position, engage the parking brake, and find a secure and stable surface for the vehicle to stand on then jack up the vehicle and support it securely. Remove the lubricant of the transaxle and also remove the clutch hydraulic line and dump the fluid into a container. Rearrange, the engine and transaxle as a composite, disconnect the electrical circuit and take out the wiring system, and also remove the starter motor. The transaxle to-engine mounting bolts to be gathered and to be unscrewed to detach the transaxle from the engine. For fitment if required fit the clutch parts and replace the clutch release cylinder. Shove the transaxle until you have the dowel pins and the input shaft properly engaged. After positioning the transaxle housing, the final step is to secure the transaxle housing-to-engine bolts, and fill the transaxle with the appropriate type of fluid and the clutch will need to have air bled out of it. Regarding the instructions of changing the shifter, for 2012 and newer models, it is recommended to shift the shifter to neutral first and then take out the battery as well as the air filter housing. Remove the power distribution center bracket, transaxle breather hose, shift cable and select cable. Disconnect the autoshift cable, remove the heat shield of the driveaxle, CKP sensor, and unplugging and flushing the clutch hydraulic line. Lift the car, take off the driver side inner fender plastic, and unplug the ground cable and back-up light/neutral position switch connector. If you are asked to have the engine rotated, you'll pull the harness aside, take off the driveaxles and the starter; in addition, you will need to support the oil pan. Lift the car with a floor jack and get the clutch damper out of the way, and then get the bolts, mount and bracket of the transaxle out of the way too. Lose the torque rod retaining bolt and transaxle to engine bolts and then set the transaxle aside and gently lower it. For installation, if to be installed, position the clutch components and make the clutch release cylinder replacement. Position the transaxle as far as possible forward and make sure that the dogs have engaged well after that tighten the bolts which fasten the transaxle housing to the engine and then refill the transaxle with the fluid and bleed the clutch.
