Fiat 500 Clutch Replacement Part 1

Replacing the clutch in a 2013 Fiat 500. It's a known issue with these cars. I would definitely recommend buying OEM. Part one is mostly prep for removal of the transmission(battery box, axles, starter, bumper,etc.)

Great Videos, a big thank you. A couple of points. Firstly, the axle nut on my Fiat 500 0.9L is a 36mm not 35mm as described in the video (yours may be 35mm, mine is definitely 36mm so others should check their own vehicle) and I didn't have to grind nearly as much as you did. Mounted my new socket on an impact driver and rotated it on the running angle grinder - much neater result and I only had to do about 1cm or so. Second, the nuts on the back of the battery box/ECM are a pain to get to. You can umplug the ECM by lifting the latches from the centre up and outward from the centre then the plugs come out upwards. The ECM comes out attached to the battery box - much easier.

Take the rotor off no grinding needed

Man, you did such a great job the only complaint I have is I wish you had more lighting. I'm thinking about doing it on mine although I don't know if I could actually do it.

[@cashmansgarage5134]

Thank you! I'll try to get better lighting on future videos. I upgraded the lighting since this video tho. LED makes all the difference!

[@seanjost7160]

the 3rd bolt on the starter!!! Thank you!!

DID I HEAR CORRECTLY YOU CALLED IT A "FORD FIAT 500?" THINK YOU MIGHT BE A LITTLE CONFUSED

[@cashmansgarage5134]

Haha I did but didnt feel like retaking the video. I dont really do edits :-P

[@channghiem5012]

you heard it correctly , he incorrectly labelled it

[@tabithiajones2511]

YOU KNOW WHAT THEY SAY ABOUT FORD. FIX IT AGAIN TONY. LOL. - DALE GRIBBLE BYEAH

[@ivanvega2821]

Is this similar to a 2014 500L with an automatic transmission??

[@OsvaldoPaese]

wow your most viewed video is the one for the Fiat. There must be a lot of non Americans watching.

[@Crusaderglenn]

Nailed it!I started watching videos on how to change the clutch on my olds alero,but ended up here hahaha.I'm from Europe :D

[@timothyblythe1996]

So my friend has a 2013 fiat 500 arabth when she pushes the clutch in it makes a slight squealing noise. Where should I start on getting it fixed?

[@cashmansgarage5134]

If I was to guess, I would think either the throwout bearing or the clutch itself. Is the squeal continuous or is it just during the actual pushing of the pedal?

[@timothyblythe1996]

That's what I was thinking. I can't remember but I can find out tomorrow thanks for the help.

[@timothyblythe1996]

It on makes the squealing noise when the clutch pedal is pushes in

[@cashmansgarage5134]

Try using some 5w40 by the pedal assembly. If no difference then back to lookin at clutch

Its a nightmare way to many parts to remove on the fiesta way easier even on my 2014 mustang 5.0 you just remove transmission bolt parts of exhaust manifold and that all

[@dennismayer4936]

Good attempt at sharing the process. Unfortunately there wasn't a good transfer of knowledge.

[@irishjoker3353]

Destroying half your tools ooh dear .

[@scottgecias1022]

Make sure you don't get a junk clutch

[@johnwinters7464]

Jesus no need to remove drive shafts

[@channghiem5012]

[@philip.aocallaghan4602]
