I have a Volkswagen 2007 Rabbit 2.5l 5 Cylinder with a 5-Speed transmission, I need to replace my slave cylinder, do I need to take out the transmission?

@Erik201294 I have not seen your application, but the release bearing design uses a fork and external slave cylinder. Trans stays put. Good luck. Gary

Bleeding the fluid would help achieve a more positive Pedal feel wouldn't it, it's on an izuzu dmaz

@foleym86

If you flush out any air bubbles it sure would. I'm not sure of your application is it a Duramax? If the fluid is badly degraded, contaminated you might improve it with bleeding. Your vechile details would be helpful to advise further. Gary

@MRKILLAHI my Toyota did that.. throwout bearing fixed it

[perfectionclutch]

@mitchelada1 The transmission has to be removed to R&R slave cylinder and bearing. The Ford Ranger video Part 2 shows a look at the parts as installed and our other Ranger video shows what it looks like on the bench. And our connection servicing video shows the connection disconnect technique.

@perfectionclutch o ok its a 5.8L it is a 5 speed transmission with hydraulic clutch

[perfectionclutch]

@mitchelada1

You didn't give us the engine info, I found 3 situations, gas engine 5 speed is "inside" on the front of the transmission, Concentric Slave Cylinder requires trans R&R to service. Gas 4 speed 1/4 turn to remove slave cylinder and the 7.3L and 7.5L are held on with a giant retaining clip. Gary

how can i remove the slave cylinder of a ford f250 1993 4x4

@Clothify

You didn't mention if you replaced the master or slave cylinder. I would look at the master cylinder (under dash) and look for weeping. Possibly master cylinder is bypassing internally. Also check slave cylinder for weeping of fluid. Any fluid leak must be addressed.
