Need help clutch line leaking
Seeing of anyone has had this problem and what they did to fix.
Ok the trans line going into to slave cylinder leaks and then I get dead peddle and loose clutch pressure. Only seems to happen when it's cold? |
Have you pulled the slave down and made sure that the clip is on there to hold the line on? People report losing an o-ring that sits down in there and could lead to the leak but it would be a problem all the time, not just when it's cold.
A new slave is ~$80. Pulling it down doesn't take any time at all......2- 15mm bolts (IIRC) and then GENTLY pull it out, be sure not to lose the rubber cap. Bleeding it is a pain in the ass but not worth the $1000 the dealership wants to R&R the slave. I took 30 mins for the whole thing. Sent from my DROID4 using Tapatalk |

Mine quoted me $1000, I wonder why they elected to mark it up so much. The $275 isn't a bad price.

Thanks guys I got under it and played around with it. Cleaned it up, pulled the line out and found dirt around it everywhere. Cleaned everything really good ( and the rubber gasket cap thing ) installed the line back on. Had my 9 year old some pump the clutch peddle a couple dozen time lol and bled the system and it now is working fine. I did notice the fluid was like a milky color so I might try and bleed all the old fluid out.

If the fluid was bad then you should bleed your entire system. The brakes and clutch operate off of the same pool of fluid.
