To change the clutch on a 2004 Kia Rio, first, disconnect the battery and lift the vehicle securely. Remove the transmission by detaching the drive shafts, shift linkage, and any necessary bell housing bolts. Once the transmission is out, replace the old clutch disc, pressure plate, and release bearing with new ones, ensuring they are correctly aligned. Finally, reassemble the transmission, reconnect all components, and test the clutch operation before lowering the vehicle.
