Apparently my clutch master cylinder is "leaking, bad" as quoted by my dealer. They said they had to top off the fluid for me. I was also quoted $300 to replace.

My question is has anyone replaced this before. Do you recommend oem or will an aftermarket one work? Any tips/tricks in replacing it?

$300? the part costs $110cdn and labour can't be more then $70

I blow mine at least once a year because of the clutch I am using, you can take out the old one and bleed the new system and be done in 30-45min, you might as well do the slave cylinder while your at it

 

Seriously go to kragen and get one for like $90 brand new. And do it yourself. It's a couple bolts, a clamp, a hydraulic line, and a cotter pin. First time I would guess an hour maybe a little more to do it.

 

$120 tops for both master and slave, 1 hr tops for install and bleeding. Having a friend to help bleed the lines makes it easier.

 

I plan to do this myself. Anyone have the steps to do it?
