BulletMagnet Posted March 27, 2010 Posted March 27, 2010 It's worrying that Greekman has actually gone thru the whole dilemma of destroying brakes like a serial killer and then says: not as hard as i drive my lancia delta in greece...never had to change the slave cylinder on that one...and its got 130k on the clock... :lol: Quote
Greekman Posted March 27, 2010 Author Posted March 27, 2010 big puddle of fluid under the engine -ish- and clutch pedal going all the way down with no resistance and staying there...no clutch...car only starts Quote

IanS16 Posted March 27, 2010 Posted March 27, 2010 Mate, I really feel for you!! I'm having a similar problem with the clutch pivot bolt! It went twice in the space of 2 months I think mine is because my clutch is worn though. Quote
Greekman Posted March 28, 2010 Author Posted March 28, 2010 really not impressed and not secure any more...you never know when it will go...at least a warranty job... Quote

Darren-B Posted May 4, 2010 Posted May 4, 2010 I tried my local stealer, but they claim there are none in the country, 4-6week wait, what utter rubbish and how useful is that. Luckily the forum has saved me again, ZMANALEX has rescued me, Quote

Luckily the forum has saved me again, ZMANALEX has rescued me, thought about the same so many times...if only he was female, tall, blonde with big boobs Quote
Jixaman Posted May 5, 2010 Posted May 5, 2010 Where is the slave cylnder located? I have the same symptoms, clutch pedal hits the floor with no resistance and stays there... The odd thing is theres no pool of fluid anywhere I can see, I would have expected something, the fluid is halfway below the minimum and the bottom pipe so the fluid has gone somewhere... What kind of timescale am I looking at to change it? Not good... Quote
