To replace the clutch on a 106 you will need to remove the air box, battery, wheels and starter motor and disconnect the gear linkages. Before you remove the drive shafts drain the gearbox vie a 3/4 square drive plug located on the bottom of the gearbox (then remove the shafts).
After this you will need to support the engine and remove the engine mount from the gearbox.
Once this is done the electrical cables connectors and associated clips will have to removed from the gearbox.
Once you are sure that there is nothing left fastened to the box remove the gearbox bolts including the bolt located under the engine that secures the front pipe to the engine/gearbox.
The gearbox should then be removed by sliding it slightly to the N/S of the car to extract the input shaft from the crank and then lowering to the floor,
The clutch is then visible and can be replaced ensuring that the clutch is tightened evenly and properly aligned using the appropriate aligning tool (sometimes supplied with the new clutch).
Before refitting the gearbox it is always worth replacing the driveshaft oil seals on the gearbox as these can be a pain if they leak once the job is complete.
Refit the box and reassemble the components in reverse order remembering to refill the box with fresh gearbox oil
