reeceybeaney Posted October 28, 2017 Posted October 28, 2017 (edited) First real mechanical/technical issue today with the 350z. Clutch goes to the floor and doesn't return for a good 5 seconds. So I carry on driving as normal thinking "it's going to do it again". Clutch goes to the floor and doesn't return at all. There's a leak of clutch/brake fluid under the car towards the passenger front side, guessing it's a broken clutch line hence why the clutch doesn't work? Fluid was dripping from the black hose/line in the photo, might be hard to see sorry! Can anyone shed any light or anyone experienced this previously? Thanks!

ZMANALEX Posted October 28, 2017 Posted October 28, 2017 If it is a DE then it will probably be just the external slave cyl. Replace the slave and the hose and bleed with fresh fluid and all should be good. Quote

Replace the slave and the hose and bleed with fresh fluid and all should be good. It is a DE, always forget to say aha. Is the slave cylinder causing the leak or is it possible the line is broken? Once I get it home tomorrow I will have a proper look and no doubt be in touch! Thanks Quote
ZMANALEX Posted October 28, 2017 Posted October 28, 2017 Could be either or mate, you will soon see once you inspect, but replace both. Quote
reeceybeaney Posted October 29, 2017 Author Posted October 29, 2017 Appears the line has come completely out! Jacked the car up and found it just hanging... replacement line??? Quote
