clutch master cylinder

[johns3]

Hi all,

My s3c is at the mechanics to have the master cylinder replaced due to a leak. I gave him the part number from the alternative parts list for a replacement cylinder but his suppliers had no joy locating a part from the number. Can anyone tell me a make and model off a car that shares the same part e.g. ford sierra (doesnt look ford though I know)

Thanks in advance!!!!

Hello John, do you really need a replacement cylinder, I thought I did and like you, couldnt locate one. I replaced the seals and it has been fine. Let us know how you get on.

Found this one on tvrcarparts for £51. Not too bad price wise. Has anyone ever bought this item. Can anyone recommend it or otherwise? Also might by this silicon hose kit

again has anyone ever bought this item. Can anyone recommend it or otherwise?

Likewise here when the slave cylinder sprung a leak. Bit of wet and dry to clean the bore, new seals (went with the best fitting ones I could find in my local auto-spares' 'junk bin') and its been fine ever since...

I replaced master and slave a while ago , rang Tower view and they put them in the post,
I have just looked out the invoice but there is no part numbers .
I am sure they will be able to supply you if you are unable to find the parts localy .
Master was £47 + p&p

I replaced my master cylinder a while back, got mine from David Gerald TVR (can't recomend them enough for great service) think it was about £60 delivered.

ive just bought one from tvrcarparts.com for about £60 delivered.
When it arrives and is fitted I will post how it went and if it was the right part.
