Hi mate,
Hope you don't mind me messaging you directly for advice.. From reading your posts your:e obviously very familiar with Boxsters.
You replied to one of my threads on 986forum about my gearbox issues.
I can't work out what's going on with my clutch.
A quick summary:
Replaced clutch & had difficulty getting the box back in but eventually got there.
Tested that everything worked before putting the undercarraige back in.
!st time clutch depressed the slave cylinder **** itself.
Replaced slave cylinder & bled by using the rear left brake caliper & clear tube to slave cylinder. All fluide leaked from resiviour.
Had my wife depress the brake as I opened both nipples & could see the moevement of fluid.
About 10 pumps all the way down with nipples closed before brake pedal is released with both cluch pedal in & out.
Still no joy.
Im confused. Its a simple hydralic line......WTF is going on. Is there a valve somewhere or something?
Any idea's?
Cheers
Eric

Thanks for your reply.
I do have a Durametric so I'll look for the factory procedure to bleed the air out.
Everything looked fine when replacing the clutch/gearbox. The trow out bearing was seated in the fork as it should be & a clutch alignment tool was used to centre the clutch. I've had the car for 15 years & do just about all work required myself & using the advice on forums when needed.
I appreciate your advice.
Cheers
Eric
