Two leaks - j90xxx - 06-10-2012 During the MOT last week the tester discovered 2 leaks. illyme: First one was the clutch slave cylinder. When I say leaking, it is 'weeping' (his words, not mine). Priced a Sachs one for £22. Is this a DIY job, or leave to the local (not main dealer) garage? Second one is the power steering pump. This, again, is not a bad leak and has been like that for 12 months. Is this a remove and repair, or possible new (recon) pump? Realise difficult to answer without seeing, but any advise gratefully received. RE: Two leaks - ron - 06-10-2012 Hi again Martin,The slave cyl is a relatively simple job.The power steering pump fluid is not changed as part of the servicing schedule & consequently oxidises.My advice is to suck out all you can from the reservoir,top up with new fluid & use it for 100+miles.Repeat the drain & refill at least 3-4 times.This will effectively change the fluid.(check the old oil,should appear "metallic")This will clear as the changes progress.Another tip,for what it's worth,is After the above add a dose of Forte power steering additive.This often rejuvenates the seal & slows/stops the weep.Good luck. RE: Two leaks - j90xxx - 08-10-2012 Anyone got the part number for the slave cylinder? tudy: RE: Two leaks - Coco - 08-10-2012 2182 95 - £29.63 inc VAT RE: Two leaks - j90xxx - 08-10-2012 Not this one then? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/130774483274?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649 RE: Two leaks - Coco - 08-10-2012 Don't know - I can't see your Ebay RE: Two leaks - j90xxx - 08-10-2012 Try again. My fault. illyme: RE: Two leaks - Coco - 08-10-2012 Looks like it is RE: Two leaks - j90xxx - 08-10-2012 Correct. Have seen it in the flesh. And the leak. The one on ebay 'appears' to be correct. Checked SACHS website, and part no. is same. RE: Two leaks - Coco - 08-10-2012 Saved a few quid then - don't let Mrs XXX know, or she'll be wanting to be treated too |
