• Q: How to replace the Clutch Slave Cylinder on 2008 Chevrolet Corvette?

  A: Begin clutch actuator cylinder replacement by disconnecting the negative Battery Cable followed by removal of the left instrument panel lower insulator panel. Extract the clutch master cylinder rod retainer and the clutch master cylinder rod from the clutch pedal sequence. First lift the vehicle then remove the windshield washer solvent container. Run a clip removal tool on the Clutch Hose connection retaining clip then disconnect its hose from the clutch master cylinder while wrapping each hose coupling end in protective covering against contaminants. The vehicle requires removal of the driveline support assembly along with the transaxle before the Clutch Hose connection retaining clip must be detached to separate the Clutch Hose from the clutch actuator cylinder while protecting both components. Pull out the mounting bolts which secure the clutch actuator cylinder before extracting the cylinder from the driveline support assembly. To fit the assembly, set the clutch actuator cylinder on the driveline support structure and screw in mounting bolts torqued to 12 n.m (106 lb in). To attach the Clutch Hose to its connection with the clutch actuator cylinder use the retaining clip while performing force tests on the hose fittings for firmness. Reposition the driveline support assembly along with the transaxle followed by attachment of the Clutch Hose connection retaining clip. Verify proper engagement between the clutch actuator cylinder hose and the clutch master cylinder hose before connection. Check the clutch hydraulic hoses for curves and kinks before connecting the clutch actuator cylinder hose to its dangling clip beneath the Brake Master Cylinder. Return the windshield washer solvent container when the vehicle is lowered into position. Screw and tighten the clutch master cylinder rod to the clutch pedal before putting on the rod retainer. Reinstall the left instrument panel lower insulator panel. You must connect the negative Battery Cable while tightening the bolt to 15 n.m (11 lb ft). After programming the transmitters you should bleed the clutch hydraulic system.
