Hi Roy. Step 1 that you posted for changing the clutch says "REMOVE MANUAL TRANSAXLE ASSEMBLY". Do you have the removal and installation procedures for the manual transaxle assembly for the 2007 Toyota Yaris 1.5L? Thanks

Hi Roy,

Thanks. The first 7 pictures that have torque specs are not readable. I tried zooming in but it makes everything pixelated. Could you please reupload higher resolution pictures? Also, do you have the instructions for replacing the pressure plate, flywheel, main seal, and rear seal? Thanks

Okay, I attached larger pictures for you. Use a laptop or desktop to view. It will not be that visible on a phone.

As far as the pressure plate, the instructions are already posted in the previous answers.

The rear main seal requires the removal of the flywheel to access the seal. You can remove and install the seal once the flywheel is removed.

Install the flywheel when the seal is replaced and torque to 80 pounds on the bolts.

No, just install all together and tighten each one to about 25 pounds. Then do the final torque. I just go around the circle.
