excel 1998 losing clutch pressure

Jun 11, 2008 1 Replies

Hi,



Ive had the clutch, master and slave cylinder replaced and the clutch is losing pressure. There seems to be no leakage and the reservior doesnt need refillinh.



An example of the problem is; depress the clutch and purt it into gear with foot on the brake. The car will eventually stall as the clutch engages despite the clutch being depressed.

There's probably air still in the system. Start with rebleeding the clutch system. If it's only a small amount of air, pumping the clutch pedal will usually restore hydraulic pressure, and the air will tend to work itself out over time.
