Clutch slave cylinder, already replaced by local garage, appears to have slow leak. Clutch fluid reservoir was empty and clutch pedal failed to operate clutch. Replenished reservoir, pumped the pedal, and clutch function was restored. Considering self-repair options for clutch slave cylinder. Also suspect some leakage from clutch master cylinder based on old (2+ years) stain on top of driver floor mat, on firewall. Slave cylnder replacement was over 4 years old, so arguably not shop's fault, but part did not last nearly as long as original. |
