It you want my advice take it to a (good) dealer. Unless you're very mechanically minded. Apparantly the whole back half of the drivetrain has to come out to get to it.

Big job.

no special tools needed but remember to remove the swivel pin that the clutch arm pivots on. you get it by removing the starter motor then the 10mm hex bolt in the side that the starter covers then just wiggle the shaft out.
takes me about 2 hrs job done.(and thats with removing the exhaust)
