Someone told me that if you had to replace the clutch in this car you would have to pull the motor out. The Toyota dealer said this was a good car to get and get rid of. What gives?

I've heard that you are able to just remove the transaxle to replace the clutch, but I have never seen it being done. I think its easier to just remove the whole engine and trans and replace it outside the car. Then you can do other maintenance work too. Because it seems as if you have to do the missile silo method to get the trans to go back on. I have become a pro at it now.
