Title: Clutch pedal don\'t come up
Post by: allrounda88 on August 05, 2012, 03:16:06 PM
Yesterday i drove with my car and put in the reverse gear than first gear and the clutch pedal didn\'t come up
it smelled a little bit like clutch
after a few seconds brake fluid came out from the bottom of the left side

so my first idea is that the clutch release cylinder is broken
or any other ideas
is it easy to remove and to fit a new one?

thanks for fast answer

Where is it located
The brake fluid comes out underneath
The car on the left side when you are behind it

So I think the slave cylinder is located there

Slave cylinder is above the starter motor, on the passenger side.

No need to remove starter.   Flexi pipe is above slave, goes up to join on bulkhead.
