Hi, Can someone point me in the right direction with removal & replacement Master Clutch Cylinder please. mine leaking at clutch peddle. looked in tech and can't find anything even normal forum search - vas
1: Undo all fluid lines attached to the Clutch M/Cyl. 2: Remove the two(2) bolts(one top, one bottom) on the mounting flange of the M/Cyl. 3: Carefully pull the M/Cyl from the firewall, making sure not to spill the fluid on any paintwork, as Brake & Clutch fluid will damage paintwork. 4: Replace M/Cyl in the reverse order(Step 3 to 1). 5: Replace fluid in Reservoir and bleed air from the system at each bleed point.
Hey Vas... How certain are you that it's the Master cylinder? When you say you are leaking, do you mean your actually leaking fluid at the pedal? If so, then yes master cylinder. Very easy to pull off. 2 pressure hoses and 2 or 3 bolts (off memory) from the firewall. Take it in to get machined/sleeved. Then re-fit, and re-bleed. If you mean "leaking" as in leaking pressure (rather than fluid) than it may even be the slave cylinder. As it's most common symptom is when you hold the clutch pedal in for a while, it looses pressure on the clutch and starts enguaging (like if you're sitting at lights) Just a couple of thoughts for you.
Thanx Heaps Guys Yeah its leaking from boot where clutch peddle is mechanic looked at it and said leaking master needs replacement i am loosing fluid have to top up every now and then also hard to put in gears sometimes and crunches needs pumping of peddle oh yeah and it sorta makes a loud squealing sound then pump peddle then goes away vas
Similar spot to where I am at the moment Bloody thing. Not a huge leak and clutch still feels sweet, and gear changes are easy too.. I'll leave mine til it starts grinding Bookmarked tho Thanks guys
