A clutch MC. BTDT twice on Audis alone.

When it happened on my 200 I rebuilt the MC and also replaced the high
pressure hose and the Slave, coz it was full of mud, which is a product
of the hose inner walls deterioration. I strongly advise you not to save
$100 and do all of them at once. And I wouldn't go to Canada with a
clutch like this.

For a '89 200QT:
MC rebuild kit: 431 798 045A, was $14.50
Slave Cylinder: 4A0 721 261 , was $59
Pressure Hose : 431 721 465 , was $51
