I had my slave and master clutch cylinders replaced maybe a year and a half ago after my clutch pedal started sticking to the floor. I was able to pull it up with my foot and switch gears. Eventually I couldn't get the car into gear at all. Six month later, same problem. The part/s (not sure which were replaced with each repair) were warrantied and repaired. Six months later, same thing again. Now my clutch is sticking again. What could be causing these to blow so frequently? The guy at the trans shop said he has never seen them blow after a replacement and mine are about to go now for a fourth time. I think he mentioned replacing the whole clutch or some other part if it happened again. Is it just a cheap/faulty part that is being installed or is there some other issue causing this? I occasionally get on the gas a little but I don't drive overly aggressive or hard.

 

Replaced the rubber line with a stainless steel line yet?

 

Well, I went through two slave cylinders before I bought a Nissan one. Most of those aftermarket ones are junk. Probably just got a crap part.

 

Both those dudes hit it right on the head (although I don't agree all aftermarket are junk). I bought an exedy slave from Rock Auto when I did mine and I replaced my clutch line with a 1 piece SS line getting rid of ALL of the tanglement of hard lines and bubbles trapped within. Even experts have a VERY hard time bleeding em.

 

Thanks for the input guys.

 

That's true, too. I had to use a power bleeder twice to get the system bled. And not all aftermarket parts are crap, the master cylinder for the clutch hasn't had an issue yet.
