Clutch Slave Cylinder

HOW TO DETECT THE CLUTCH SLAVE CYLINDER FAILURE

Malfunctions of the clutch slave cylinder in most cases are easy to reveal: it is enough to lift the car with a hoist, to start the engine, to ask an assistant to depress the clutch pedal as far as it goes and check the unit. Cracks on the housing, its warping or corrosion, leakage of fluids from the dust covers and seals indicate that the part needs to be repaired or replaced.

For more comprehensive diagnosis, the component should be disassembled and examined. If the degree of the cylinder wear is too large, the assembly requires replacement.
