CSC Failure Symptoms?

King · 11-24-2017, 12:37 AM

My CSC failed at 22k mi it was 100% covered by warranty.
it definitely was feeling soft for a few weeks before it failed, and there were a couple times I felt like when the pedal was released the clutch itself hadn't engaged or was slipping.

I will discourage you from replacing only the master cylinder as has been recommended in this thread, if there is a bad part in your system any dirt showing up in your system because of it, will just ruin the master cylinder again. You will find the advice quite often here, if you replace the CSC replace the master too. I was really suprised that even the dealer insisted on replacing both, when I expected to have to convince them to do the extra work.
