Did you bleed the clutch after? And was it hard to do, can I do under an hourIt's all about using the right tools. You need one of these:
The clamp is impossible to fasten by hand, and next to impossible with normal pliers due to the lack of space. But with some thin, extra-long nose pliers it's really a breeze.
No, I didn't. I figured the circuit actually started at the clutch master cylinder, so as long as there are no leaks it shouldn't need to draw any fresh fluid (or air) through that line.
Okay sounds simple enough, take the old line off and put the new on as long as I have the tools I got bigger hands so it’s a tight fit
Be careful. Since my car was already down from the slave failing I figure I'd check this. I could see some seeping and barely touched the connection it it came right off. It appears the outer hose is coming loose from the underlying rubber seal. I had to slide the smaller rubber fitting off of the nipple, put it back inside the hose, and re-install. It's definitely tight on the nipple now compared to when it came off.
In the first pic you can see where the outer hose has begun to come loose from the inner gasket/seal/whatever it's called. Just a slight pull and it came right off the nipple, leaving the rubber portion behind.
EDIT: To be fair - I've had my master cylinder replaced by the dealer so my specifics may not be the same as assembly line issues, but it certainly seems awfully similar.
Yes, that's correct.
When contacting the Steeda line to the reservoir and getting the fluid out of there should I do a brake flush after just wondering?
What issue are you trying to resolve?
None. No driveability problems yet. Have not tracked the M1 yet either. I just meant to express that that the line still slips on MY 2022 S550's, so "this issue has not been resolved"...
