you will do nothing and you will be happy

>>28965153What model clio is this? I have a 1.2 and the engine bay doesn't come with that plastic cover.
>>28965153It appears my superiority has led to some controversy..
>>28965180Renault Modus aka Nissan Note
>>28965153Ah, Renault's "sorry, we MUST make the cars impossible to work on because otherwise we can't get 5 Euro NCAP stars" era, when they made you go through the arch liner to change a bulb on a Megane.Meanwhile, just a few years earlier:
>>28965153Never worked on one of those. But doesn't that cowling come off?
>>28965153
>>28965319nice porsche
>>28965153>>28965155Grim. Probably better to buy an EV if you’re going to choose a micro compact like this.
>>28965322?
>>28965323>Probably better to buy an EV
>>28965378What's the difference when, say, a clutch requires pulling the entire car apart so you end up with a similar bill anyway?
>>28965380you buy a $100 clutch kit, remove the gearbox and replace the clutch along with the thrust bearing. that's not 20k of labor even at dealership rates
>>28965380if I'm lazy I can get a clutch done for under a grand, you disingenuous cum chugger
>>28965389>>28965400On one of these ultra cramped micro compacts? Gonna cost you more than the car is worth at that mileage.
>>28965412you can look up the clutch replacement procedure on youtube, it's typically a weekend j;b for a regular non-mechanic on a cramped fwd shitbox
Wrenching on the go
>>28965380>a similar billAnon a shop can replace a gas engine and transmission entirely for less than that price in most vehicles.
>>28965378>random example from 4 years agoNew tesla batteries are like 8-12k now and practically last forever
>>28965419wat
>>28965153Pretty common on modern small hatches to have to remove the wiper cover to access the back of the engine. Had to remove all the wipers to get long tube headers on to a late Mazda2.
>>28965380What kind of Immorten Joe ass car do you drive where the whole thing has to be pulled apart to change the clutch? Besides, at the absolute worst that's a 2k $ job if you take it to a shop and you'll probably won't do it more than twice over the lifetime of the car.
>>28965153isn't it great????? easy engine access is for LOSERS
>>28965380Not a problem in my AMT
>>28966340regassing AC myself is unusually very satisfying
>>28965319wtf
>>28966705
>>28966732The more I think about it the more I feel like this could actually be heavenly to work on>remove a couple screws>detach that thing and then just reach everything easily without anything in the way
>>28966734>look up video of this on youtube>its like a 20-30 min procedure to drop the whole assembly (if you have a hoist)really not that bad
