DIY Clutch Slave CSC Renewal on 1.8T

Abott10 · 23rd August 2018, 22:39

Less than a thousand miles after fitting a new TAZU Metal Clutch Master Cylinder to my daily driver ZT-T 1.8T, the CSC Slave Cylinder let go. Fluid dripping from Bell Housing when trying to bleed. Obviously annoying particularly as I fitted a new LUK CSC Slave when I fitted the MG 6 engine. That was only a few thousand miles ago.

I have obtained another LUK CSC ~ that on Marinabrian's recommendation ~ and plan to DIYer fit that... taking my time. I'm using my 620ti and ZT Saloon meantime so no hurry. So now looking for Gearbox removal pointers.

So, considering my limited DIYer resources, before I get stuck in, any "how to" pointers from those who have removed a gearbox from a 1.8 Car will be greatly appreciated.
