Slave Cylinder

The Clutch Slave Cylinder repair process starts with disconnecting the clutch line after properly lifting the vehicle while removing the LH and RH engine under covers. Special Service Tool 09023-00100 enables users to disconnect the clutch line while a storage container catches fluid before lowering the vehicle. You must start by disassembling the air cleaner case assembly with the air hose then detach the clutch line clamp set bolt before finally removing the two bolts for clutch line bracket and release cylinder. To perform disassembly simply pull out the boot containing the push rod before removing it off the push rod. Keep the spring and piston submerged in waste cloth while using compressed air to extract them from the cylinder pipe because abrupt motion may lead to fluid splatter. When assembling install the bleeder plug with 8.4 Nm (85 kgf-cm, 74 inch lbs.) torque while applying lithium soap base glycol grease to the piston before inserting it with the spring into the cylinder. To assemble the components begin by cutting the push rod inside the boot until it reaches a suitable length after which attach the push rod to the boot and then to the cylinder. The installation process requires two bolts on the release cylinder and clutch line bracket to be tightened at 12 Nm (120 kgf-cm, 9 ft. lbs.) torque and a 4.9 Nm (50 kgf-cm, 43 inch lbs.) torque fastening of the clutch line clamp to the clutch line bracket followed by the correct installation of the air cleaner case assembly with its air hose. After raising the vehicle Special Service Tool: 09023-00100 must be used to connect the clutch line at 15 Nm (155 kgf-cm, 11 ft. lbs.) torque. The process includes filling the brake reservoir with fluid, bleeding the clutch system, leak inspection, and reinstallation of LH and RH engine under covers before lowering the vehicle.

Torque to 12 Nm (120 kgf-cm, 9 ft. lbs.).

Pull out the boot with the push rod and remove the boot from the push rod, then use compressed air to remove the piston with the spring from the cylinder, ensuring to hold the piston with a waste cloth to prevent it from jumping out and avoiding splashing brake fluid. Remove the bleeder plug.

Remove the air cleaner case assembly with the air hose, followed by the clutch line clamp set bolt, and then the 2 bolts securing the clutch line bracket and release cylinder.

Use Special Service Tool: 09023-00100 and ensure to use a container to catch the fluid.

Reinstall the LH and RH engine under covers and lower the vehicle.
