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

My money would be on the clutch slave cylinder
Turbocharged 192ps RX-8 running Meth Injection on an Adaptronic
Fully Bridgeported 231ps RX-8 stripped for the Track
2nd Gen RX-7 TurboII on a GT35r (show winner)

How Hard is it to remove
Is it a problem to fix pretty fast or do I have
to remove a lot of other things

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

philiwily

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

Do I have to remove the starter motor or is
It possible to change without

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

i checked the cylinder and it seems that is ok

now metal line behind it also ok but

the line behind this metal line which goes upstairs to the engine room and
to the brake master cylinder is broken
