fixed my corrado. cheers for all the help. my corrado is a 1991 16v on removing the slave cylinder i noyiced that the seal on the unit was in p@ss poor condition and as hydrolic systems often show no sign of a problem leading up to compleat failiure. i would recomend that owners of similar ahe corrados check the slave cylinder . it will be obviouse if its a old unit and may require replacing

cheers again dude .. thought i would start a new thread to be on safe side

cheers dude........ i tryed one of the satalite hallfords stores last night. they didnt have one so am going to try the main super store this morrning

changed slave cylinder for new after massive failure. . have tryed to bleed system using clutch pedal pumping and topping up brake res.. cant seem to get enough pressure in hydrolic system.. haynes golf manual 92/98 says system needs to be pressured with a kit that forces the fluid into the system .......... cant seem to get one from anywere..... please advise

right i found the problem it was the slave cylinder on top of the gear box. so i changed that for new also replaced flexy hose and anti vibration coil as could not get it off the old slave. looks like i need a kit to pressure the hydrolic system now as pumping the clutch pedal does not get pressure up .............. been around all the usual suspects { hallford, independent motor factors and such } but no one seems to sell a kit to pressure a hydrolic system.............. does anyone have any idears . or am i just doing it wrong

hi ............ thanks for the reply to my clutch problem . i am certain that i have a hydrolic leak now as pushing the car out of the garage revealed a pool of hydrolic fluid { quite near the pool of oil thats a regular feature} my corrado is a 1991 16v { i failed to point this out befor} vi checked the master cylinder which seems ok . but was unaware that there was a slave cylinder so will look into that ..........cheers

hi iv had a corrado for just over a year now and am seriously concidering getting a tow truck as a second ride :wink: as i got in it this morrning i caught the clutch pedal . which then flopped to the floor and didn,t come back up :mad: all was fine last night as i pulled it into the garage / its showed no sign of clutch related problems leading up to this/ i cant see any fluid leak on the floor under it/ i did find that the brake fluid resivoir was below min. which i have topped up / and last night was the first frost/ .................. any idears to cause and solution would be welcome
