Slave Cylinder Replacement

Asked by Maddy89 May 04, 2009 at 01:05 PM about the 1999 Chevrolet Cavalier Z24 Coupe FWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

The clutch in my car will depress then not release. I checked under the car to see a leak coming from what looks like the transaxle. I've ruled out it being the springs, and have narrowed it down to the slave clyinder (possibly). I need to know how easy/not easy this will be, and the steps to fix it (Hayes Manual is not very enlightening). Thanks for any help given :)

its a bitch to do your self you got to drop the motor and the tranny as one unit by undoing the sub frame honestly i got the same problem to fix it temp add dot 3 fluid to you clutch resovoir and have a shop do it i got quoted 500 for labour then the part so itll be around 800 after taxes
