Clutch Slave Cylinder
Change the slave and the master cylinders, bleed clutch. Should cost ~ $100 and 45min.
Slave, autozone is like $25 and a 40 minute install. Happened to me a few months ago and it was fixed 2 hours after it happene a
should i do the slave first? then if it still has the problem, change the master?
It has been my experience that when the slave is done, the master will soon follow. I decided to do both at the same time and found that the seal at the rear of the master was torn and had a slow leak. Save yourself the trouble of worrying about it later and just swap them both out.
true!
i will look into it asap, you guys help alot thank you!
Check the fluid. There’s a rubber hose in between the hardlines that likes to degrade, replace it and flush the system
Try checking the fluid level first
Slave cylinder! !
Two bolts hold the master cylinder to the firewall, two bolts hold the slave cylinder to the transmission. You’ll need an open ended wrench or a flare wrench(10mm) to remove the lines from both. Fluid levels won’t drop with a bad slave cylinder.
You’ll need an 8mm to bleed the system and a 12mm for the bolts holding it in.
Clutch master/slave cylinder!
@Rene is on crack. Usually when a slave fails it leaks. Thus you loose fluid…
Umm, no. If the internals fail and the boot doesn’t tear, it won’t leak.
slave was $18.50 @ Oriley autoparts, and is a 5min install, plus a few min of pumping fluid- literally only need a 10mm wrench, 12mm socket/short extension, and a second person to pump. oh, and whatever to open/close the bleed nipple (8mm on most of the aftermarket ones ibe had)
slaves fail often on these cars. very common problem.
Slaves fail often on a lot of cars lol. And the boot isn’t enough to retain fluid in most cases. It will weep.
Bleed it
When I changed mine, I had a full reservoir. If it did leak, it wasn’t enough to be noticeable.
true, but is super common on Miatas. they fail all the time due to where they are mounted.
slave…
My car has 100k and I’m on my third so you must have gotten lucky.
Change ur master also.
and then after the master and slave u get to replace the rubber hydrolic line that runs between the hard lines…. conveniently located between the firewall and the engine.
I agree with @Rene
Stainless steel FTW.
How come every topic on miata life is how to fix a miata
You must not be a car guy if you have to ask this question, get an automatic…
Um yea ok….
Check the lower clutch line and slave cylinder.
Okay !
sounds like either the master or slave is leaking.
you aren’t pumping the brake ? are you ? this would explain a lot
I’m not stupid enough to get the clutch and brake confused with each other -_- well I’m off to autozone
I changed my Slave because it was leaking and I had to pump to get in gear. Now months later its getting hard to shift into gear even if I pump. Think the master is getting messed up now 🙁
thats why im doing both slave and master, one problem leads to another, might as well take care of both
Air in line? Usually from leaking slave/master. Bleeding line might buy some time.
yeah thats the first thing my buddy told me to do was to bleed it
Its clutch master or the little boot on slave replace both and it will be fine just did it in mine
Mine failed at 120k and 13 years old. Easy job. Do both Clutch and slave at the same time.
