Kendo11 Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 Evening all, Jspec NA 5spd manual. My car has been getting a little noisy every time I engage gear, kind of like a light metal clanging sound. Also today, for the first time and quite worrying, my clutch pedal stayed down on a slight hill start in traffic, so I had it on first at the bite point and went to set off and the pedal stayed down which I had to lift up with my foot. I'm about to go and check fluids in the cylinder (if I can find where this is), but what other possibilities could be causing this? Any quick answers massively appreciated! Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
np89 Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 Sounds like the master cylinder is away, my old RX7 used to do that and it was leaking badly! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kendo11 Posted August 27, 2014 Author Share Posted August 27, 2014 Yeah mate after doing a search on these very forums it seems that way. Can anybody confirm if a master clutch cylinder has to be specific to an na or tt etc? I'm presuming they are the same? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kendo11 Posted August 28, 2014 Author Share Posted August 28, 2014 If anybody has some part numbers for a master and also slave seal kit that would be very much appreciated? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Wilson Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 The MC probably wants cleaning and blowing out with compressed air, there's a tiny bleed hole that's probably blocked. it would be sensible to fit a seal kit at the same time.

Kendo11 Posted August 28, 2014 Author Share Posted August 28, 2014 Thanks Chris. Would a UK spec seal kit for a tt be the same as my jspec na? Can't find much information that days they are different Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kendo11 Posted August 30, 2014 Author Share Posted August 30, 2014 Pretty much although just about to search for a slave seal kit which I can't find the part number for. Master seal kit ordered Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Wilson Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Maybe I can help here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kendo11 Posted August 30, 2014 Author Share Posted August 30, 2014 Fantastic, thanks Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kendo11 Posted September 1, 2014 Author Share Posted September 1, 2014 Hmm. Got the car back from the garage today and apparently everything is fine and he couldn't explain the problem I had. In other words he didn't look properly and I'll be replacing the seals on master and slave just to be sure. Good job I didn't pay for their services.
