I am tempted to do the job myself as I've been quoted around £1k to have it done. Never delved into this area before, done brakes, suspension, drive shafts etc etc but never took parts of the engine apart.

I have a 2007 outlander with the BSY engine have been looking at the workshop manual but it isnt very helpful on how to get it all apart. Is there a guide floating around somewhere which would make the job easier that anyone knows of?

From what i can ascertain i need to remove the n/s section of the engine which seperates just past the flywheel?

In which case I'd need to remove the entire n/s strut, wishbone, driveshaft etc to gain access, battery and most stuff directly above. Then would it be a case of just undoing all the bolts and off it comes exposing the clutch and flywheel?

Any advice and/or help would be much appreciated

ok so it appears its not on the n/s its more central and sits just to the left of the starter

 

Cant believe in 13 years no one has ever done this themselves. Nm I'll figure it out.
