Problems in the clutch can usually be attributed to wear of the clutch driven plate assembly (clutch disc).

Remove the transmission, and while it's out, support the engine properly either using an engine hoist from above or a jack with a piece of wood between it and the oil pan. Care should be taken not to distort the oil pan to prevent oil starvation.

Inspect the pressure plate's machined surfaces and diaphragm spring fingers. Replace it if damaged and clean all components thoroughly. For self-adjusting pressure plates, pre-adjust them using a hydraulic press or seek professional adjustment if necessary.

The initial steps for removing clutch components involve removing the transmission and supporting the engine, preferably using an engine support fixture or hoist. It is essential to use a clutch alignment tool during this process to support the clutch disc, ensuring it remains properly aligned during removal. This prevents damage to the components and simplifies the reinstallation process.
