About this deal

Here is a more detailed list of the signs of a bad or failing clutch master cylinder to look for: 1. Low Clutch Fluid As mentioned earlier, the Vivaro can be ‘challenging’ when it comes to the bleeding process. The recommended process for this system is as follows and a second person is required. Getting a low level float switch in that tiny reservoir would need a bespoke solution, I very much doubt the standard Ford type brake master cylinder float switch you've linked would fit. Clutch fluid level should not fall as the clutch itself wears. It might actually rise. If the level is dropping you need to find the leak.

The clutch master cylinder is what transfers the force of you pushing down the clutch pedal to the transmission! Clutch Master Cylinder LocationNo, we’re not yanking your chain; clutch fluid is a real thing. And if you’re looking in the clutch fluid reservoir, the fluid should always be at the same height. Otherwise, you have a problem somewhere in the system, and the most likely culprit is a leaking clutch master cylinder. The other actuator design is becoming increasingly common in modern vehicles. The clutch is actually housed in a bearing that fits around the transmission’s input shaft. When the clutch pedal is pressed, it actuates a hydraulic throwout bearing that pushes against the clutch diaphragm to disengage your clutch. If that’s happening, take a look at your clutch fluid and make sure you still have enough. 4. Dark Clutch Fluid After Changing It

To begin, you’re going to have follow the fluid line from the reservoir/slave cylinder down into the engine/transmission. If the clutch is heavy and releasing near the top of pedal travel, you have a worn clutch. Eventually it wont release at all and you'll over stress the hydraulics.With the vehicle positioned on the ramp and before raising, starting under the bonnet, disconnect the battery, remove the engine cover, disconnect the air mass meter and remove the air filter housing and ducting. Then disconnect the turbo boost pressure sensor multiplug and remove the upper charge air hose and, with these removed we now have better access to the gearbox area. Remove both front wheels, front hub nuts and the N/S/F wheel arch liner and remove the inner driveshaft gaiter retaining bolts (see below). It’s worth nothing that in some cars, in particular those from the VW Group (Volkswagen, Seat, Skoda, Audi), need a specific type of coolant/antifreeze. Your vehicle handbook will state what type you’ll need and can often be a different colour (in the case of VAG cars, it is dyed purple). At the CarShop Service Centre we can identify any fluid visually and by the Autodata system, and can provide the correct coolant too! Make sure you have the correct oil for your car, then pour some in –you can always use a funnel for this if you think you might spill. Ensure the mounting surface for the new CSC is clean and then mount it (do not ‘dry squeeze’ the CSC as this can cause damage internally or externally) and bolt into position, torqueing the bolts to the manufacturer’s specification (see below).

If your clutch fluid has dropped dramatically, then it’s likely that your clutch is going to engage at a different point too. The usual result is that you’ll have to fully depress the clutch pedal to disengage the clutch, which is typically far different than your usual engagement point. the clutch reservoir is shared with the brake reservoir, as they take the same fluid , if you look on the reservoir tank you'll see a rubber hose about halfway down that runs off the pedal area - this is the clutch feed Don’t worry, you don’t need any fancy tools or expertise to do this, all you need is a few paper towels and 5 spare minutes. Before you begin It’s worth mentioning that you can’t leave the reservoir open too long, and the same goes for the container with the new fluid. This is because the fluid will absorb moisture from the air and can ultimately cause corrosion in the brake system. How to top up brake fluid

You’ll also need to replace the clutch fluid, which usually consists of brake fluid. This is a small cost, but you’ll need to factor it in.

Once the fluid coming out of the bleeder valve starts looking clean (and bubble-free) in the vacuum hose, remove the vacuum tool. Now, if gravity is allowing fluid to drip out, you may be able to simply tighten the bleeder valve shut and be good to go. At this point it is good practice to change the clutch fluid in the hydraulic system. This will remove any contaminated fluid that could cause bleeding problems or even premature failure in the hydraulic system. This is carried out simply by allowing the fluid to flow through the system. Remembering to keep the reservoir topped up, also open the bleed valve to confirm correct operation before we commence bleeding.The clutch master cylinder is the chamber where your vehicle pushes the clutch fluid to help you disengage your clutch. There is a pushrod on one end of the cylinder, and when you depress the clutch, you push this rod against the clutch fluid, which pushes it to the slave cylinder and eventually to the clutch fork in the transmission.
