    The Stage 1 Opel Zafira Gsi needs a new flywheel, the one currently on the car is badly warped, perfect time to upgrade to a c20let high torque version before stage 3.5

    If your just doing just the clutch and slave the subframe doesn’t need to be touched. you can move the box enough to get the clutch out I hardly ever remove the subframe on any car unless I’m doing a flywheel or a box itself. Time is money lol!

    If your just doing the clutch you can leave the subframe on. Undo the suspension bolts to the hubs and leave it hanging from the ties... just undo 5 subframe bolts and leave the one under the drivers foot well.. gives you enough space to change the clutch, flywheel and real oil seal.

    My clutch went soft today. Can’t change gear properly either. It just randomly did it today when I put the clutch peddle down. I felt a pop then it went soft. Fluid level is normal and no leaks under the car. It’s bone dry. Above the peddle I’ve checked the master cylinder and it’s not leaking either. Any idea Aaron? You know your stuff. It’s a z18xer engine. Zafira b.

      What i did was wedge the clutch pedel to the floor
      put a rubber pipe on the bleed nipple and connected a syringe to the other end of the pipe
      opened the bleed nipple suck the air out with the syringe
      close the bleed nipple remove the syringe keep repeating this process
      until the fuid comes through
