“James let me know his eta prior to the time slot, he was punctual and began work straight away. He completed the work efficiently and well within the time slot! he also gave me friendly and helpful information about future work that my car will require. Unfortunately, he had to deal with a rude and stupidly behaved neighbour of mine, but he dealt with them very professionally and continued with his work. I would definitely use this service again and hope to deal with James again. Cannot fault him at all!“

How much does a Clutch Master Cylinder Replacement cost?

The cost of a clutch master cylinder replacement depends on your car and what parts your car's manufacturer recommends using for the replacement. Find out what you could save by having your clutch master cylinder replaced by Clickmechanic, by selecting your car at the top of this page!

What does a Clutch Master Cylinder do?

The clutch master cylinder, together with the clutch slave cylinder, is a component that transfers the pressure generated when you press the clutch pedal into hydraulic pressure by which, eventually the clutch is engaged.

A clutch master cylinder is usually directly connected to the clutch slave cylinder and depending on your car contains a reservoir that stores the clutch fluid.

How do you know there is something wrong with the Clutch Master Cylinder?

When the clutch pedal feels different than usual.
When you cannot change gear as normal.
When the clutch pedal can be pressed to the car's floor.
When fluid is visible around the clutch pedal (which means there is a leak).

When should you consider a Clutch Master Cylinder replacement?

Over time the clutch master cylinder and its components are prone to deterioration due to general wear. It can be that the seals wear out, in case of the external seals fluid will leak out of the cylinder causing the clutch to not function properly. Additionally it could also cause other components to corrode.

Should the internal seals deteriorate to such an extent that they are unable to direct the fluid through the cylinder correctly, it will mean that the fluid will not be pushed through to the clutch slave cylinder. In this case, when engaging the clutch there will be no pressure on the pedal and you will be able to push it down to the floor.

If you experience any problems with the clutch in a way noted under the last question it is advisable to have the system inspected and, should this be necessary, have the master cylinder replaced.

Servicing the master cylinder regularly is therefore key to ensure a prolonged and unproblematic master cylinder life. Always service the components of the clutch as and when stipulated in the guidelines set out by your car's manufacturer.

What happens during a Clutch Master Cylinder replacement?

Mechanic will inspect the clutch system.
If necessary, the mechanic will replace the clutch master cylinder.
Mechanic will advise if other components of the clutch system need to be replaced, like the the clutch slave cylinder.
Mechanic will check the level and condition of the fluid.
Mechanic will bleed the clutch system.
Mechanic will inspect the clutch system again and test drive the car to establish whether it works correctly.
