| Clutch Arm Cracked? santambrogio - Sunday, 22 September, 2013, at 10:04:02 pm |
2000 base 5sp, 95,000 mi.
Removed the slave cylinder after finding a puddle of brake fluid under the car, dripping from the belhousing.
Inspecting the part I found that the plastic tabs the cap / seal retainer (original Sachs part, all plastic) are broken and allow the piston and seal retainer to slide out of the cylinder.
This can happen if the clutch arm is cracked allowing the piston to overextend.
I've seen pictures of this here and on other forums, I am reluctant to brake a new slave cyl. I bought.
What do the experts think about this?
