Ok so I been searching and theres no way to find my answer but from personal experiences from fellow owners.

- I am constantly bleeding my clutch because it goes from center travel to the top over a couple of days. Hell I loosen the slave cylinder nipple and no fluids drip out WTF. After bleeding of course it brake fluid comes out.


So I replaced my clutch and pp with new ACT unit. I also replaced my pilot bearing, clutch release and neck and collar ring. Also replaced my slave cylinder.

I have adjusted the clutch release rod from top to bottom. Theres is no leaks.

QUESTION-1 Why is my engaging point constantly changing what is the weak link !

If you are having the same issues please post your issues.

You've replaced everything but the clutch master cylinder... so that's my vote. I had to do it last year or so. ****'s cheap. I think the replacement was like 70 bucks.

Its the master anytime you have inconsistent pedal pressure and engagement points. Its easy to change and about $85.00 from Malloy.

Yep on this.

Also, with a heavier pressure plate, you need to run a stainless braided clutch line. The higher spring rate pressure plates put a higher hydraulic stress on the system and the engagement point will be right off the floor since the stock rubber line swells. A braided line fixes that problem.

BTW, that's a "been there, done that on many cars" statement, not a guess .

In my experience it is best to replace the master and slave at the same time, even if one hasn't obviously failed.

Thanks guys I figuered it would be the master.

I also have the stainless steel line forgot to mention that.

Check inside the cabin as well - I had similar issues, and upon climbing under the dash found a trail of fluid around the pushrod.

I also believe that when doing clutch hydraulics it's best to do ALL of them. A new master will put more hydraulic load on the old slave, blowing it out, then it puts more load on the rubber hose, blowing that out. Do the whole thing at once. They last 100,000+ miles, just do them once and be done.

Yup, I really regret doing my slave, and now I've remplumbed it all and it's a PITA to get to, I can't be bothered For the sake of a few £/$, it's deffo worth rebuilding the slave.
