• Q: How to replace the clutch release bearing on 2001 Chevrolet Prizm?

  A: You must remove the manual transaxle from your vehicle before replacing the clutch Release Bearing. Detach the clutch Release Bearing and clutch release fork together before you remove the clutch Release Bearing from the clutch release fork. Check the clutch Release Bearing's exterior with a solvent-free dry clean cloth before testing its smooth rotation and inspecting it for damage. The bearing must be replaced if you detect external damage or when the bearings show signs of improper rotation. When installing the clutch Release Bearing apply a thin layer of wheel bearing grease from gm p/n 1051344 (or equivalent) before mounting it to the clutch release fork. The transaxle installation process requires fitting the clutch Release Bearing along with its fork assembly onto the transaxle before reinstallation of the transaxle.
