Default Update on my clutch cylinder problem...

Well yesterday my clutch cylinders went out and my car wouldn't to into gear. So I hopped on h-t.com and everyone was telling me how expensive the repair was gonna be. I didn't want to believe. So I went to my local import parts store and picked up the clutch master cylinder, the slave cylinder (release cylinder), and a Haynes manual for $140!! I took the parts home not even knowing where the hell the were located under my hood and starting working.

The whole process was a success and took me an hour and a half.

That's a repair I've never done before. Hope I don't have to anytime soon.

Where in the world did you find the cylinders for so cheap? ahmotor quoted me $90 for the master and $60 for the slave.

90 For the master?? Thats cheap.. but when it comes to brakes and timing belts I always go to the dealer for that...

BTW I hope you bled the line on the clutch cylinder!!

I paid like $85 for the master, and about $40 for the slave. I called like 4 different places...these weren't even the cheapest prices, they were just the only ones with the parts in stock. Advance Auto had the slave cylinder for $13!!

Non OEM parts are usally cheaper... Be careful with aftermarket parts like those sold at your local auto store. The quality isnt always as good as the original OEM ones.

for getting the clutch fixed all by yourself!
