    Been losing Hydraulics in my clutch for a couple weeks now. Took it to one garage who went on a road test with it, claims that the gearbox was dying and I needed a Transmission fluid replacement. If that didn't work then the whole gearbox would need refurbishing. Was advised to get a 2nd opinion. So I spoke to a few other garages and all said that the problem is either the master cylinder or something within the clutch itself. Most likely outcome is the master cylinder. Can't get it fixed until Wednesday, is it still safe to drive until then?

    Hello mate. I've just changed my clutch master cylinder on a Ford Fiesta ecoboost 2013. Mechanically its sound but I now have to press both the clutch and brake pedal to start. I only ever had to press the clutch in to start.Ive replaced both pedal switches but still the same. Any ideas?

  • @ilfordino-fordfiestatutori8725

    Was it leaking fluid? My Fiesta struggles when shifting into first and reverse for the first couple of minutes, then everything works flawlessly. Before changing the clutch I wanna definitely try this first (the car is a 04 1.25i with 38k miles)

    Will the master cylinder be different on a duratec engine ? Or are they same as the part that you are fitting?

    • @mclaren_media9145
      @mclaren_media9145  Před rokem +2

      Im pretty sure all the stuff to do with the clutch and gearbox is the same across the fiesta engine types , i can’t imagine ford would have developed two different master cylinders , if you just peak up under the pedal you should be able to see it

  • @peterjones2241
    @peterjones2241 Před rokem

    Hi, again mate, I’m still having a absolute nightmare with this fiesta, I’ve changed the gearbox as old one was busted, I put a new slave cylinder and master cylinder then bled the system, I’ve since been getting an ongoing accumulation of air in the clutch lines, I’ve tried the two person bleeding, I’ve reversed bled the system and after a couple of days I’m having trouble changing gears so I stop the car and bleed the clutch and the first bit of fluid is frothy with bubbles, I bleed it again till no bubbles and same thing happens. It’s not leaking fluid and reservoir isn’t dropping.I have heard it could be the seal in the slave cylinder sucking air in. I think I might have to take off the gearbox and put a new slave in and I might reverse bleed it as it states in the Ford manual. Maybe that’s why if you depress the slave before install it voids warranty. Just wanted to see if anyone has had this issue before. Thanks 😊
