Clutch Slave cylinder replacement question.
When I tried to start my car this morning, the clutch pedal did nothing. I looked under the hood and the clutch master cylinder was dry. There is fluid under the car on the slave cylinder side. I rebuild the slave cylinder last summer.
Does anyone want to try to talk me out of replacing the slave cylinder? Any thoughts on the O'Reilly Auto Parts replacement?
I feel lucky that I made it home last night. And didn't crash into the garage when I got home.
TIA

And I'd say go ahead and do both the master and slave while you're at it - stuff like that seems to go out in pairs.

What is Mazdaspeds price vs. O'Reilly's??Originally Posted by cone-cerned
Mazdaspeed is $116 plus shipping, both money and time, for both master and slave.
O'Reilly's is $101 out the door, lifetime warranty and in stock at my local store.

Totally agree with sammmy. Fortunately the slave is easy to replace. I'd guess the master should outlive the slave 2 or 3 times; the slave has a more hostile environment.
I replaced the slave cylinder and every thing seems to be doing fine. I'll hang on to the master cylinder for a little while, just in case.
Thanks for the advice.

It is usually my luck that they go out together. LOL Good luck!
