Re: 87 5000 CS Quattro Clutch pedal dropping?



In a message dated 99-03-11 20:40:01 EST, you write:

<< (BTW, the slave cylinder is located above the
 clutch pedal in the cabin) >>

I believe you refer to the clutch "master" cylinder.  The "slave" or actuator
is located at the other end of the hose, in or on the bellhousing.  Otherwise
I agree with the diagnosis as previously called by Phil.  Overstroking the
pedal can lead to broken pedal arms and even stress-cracked sheetmetal in the
mounting area of the firewall.  I'd replace that sucker now.(actually I'D
rebuild it)  Assuming the slave had been replaced, that is.
