• Q: How to install the Clutch Slave Cylinder assembly on 2009 Scion xD?

  A: Begin assembly installation of the clutch release cylinder by fastening its 2 bolts until they achieve 12 Nm (120 kgf-cm, 9 ft-lbf) torque. The next installation step involves connecting the clutch release cylinder to the flexible hose tube where usage of a union nut wrench requires 14 Nm (144 kgf-cm, 10 ft-lbf) torque and a standard torque is 15 Nm (155 kgf-cm, 11 ft-lbf). The installation requires using a 300 mm (11.8 in.) torque wrench and a 22 mm (0.866 in.) union nut wrench with both tools parallel to each other to reach required torque values. When completing the connections professionals must refuel the brake reservoir tank with brake fluid before bleeding the clutch system while applying 8.3 Nm (85 kgf-cm, 73 in-lbf) torque when needed. The last step should include checking for clutch fluid leakages.
