I'm currently in the throes of the entertaining job of taking the V6 engine out of my Spider, to sort the head gaskets (If it goes again I will have absolutely no hesitation in paying a garage to fix it :tired: ) I have almost finished taking off all the bits, prior to removing the last two...

Hi My clutch pedal goes down to the floor and doesn’t return unless I pull it by hand. I understand that this is likely to be a worn slave cylinder. Has anyone had any luck using a repair kit . Once the cylinder is out of the car how easy is it to remove the piston as I don’t have any...

Hi Have finally got myself a phase 2 V6 GTV, my first GTV and V6. Have had Alfa for years and always wanted a GTV, so now my 159 ti sportwagon has someone to keep him company on a night. Have been on forum for a number of years and posted a few times, including fantasy football posts. Have...

In my quest to seemingly find evermore “2 minute” jobs to stop me getting on the road, I’ve found the bleed nipple on my clutch slave cylinder to be pretty badly mangled, and I want to replace it, rather than screw it back in with molegrips like the last person seemingly did! Does anyone know...

Alfa Gt Jtdm 2007: Can anyone advise the part number for the rubber to hard pipe that goes to the slave cylinder? The pipe is leaking and when removed the flared part of the pipe has separated from the pipe. Or is this something that I could get made up by someone like pirtek?

I am looking for a replacement Clutch Slave Cylinder Rubber Pipe for my '08 147 Q2, part# 55189507. It is no longer serviced by Alfa UK and there are none held in stock. I am struggling to find one anywhere else and trying to avoid having one made due to the cost. Does anybody have one or can...

Hello there, I own an Alfa Romeo GT 2.0 JTS and it needs a clutch master cylinder to slave cylinder pipe. Am I restricted to the exact model, or has the same part been used in other models eg. the ***** 156 or 147? Would anyone know where to obtain one. I love my car! To lose it for just a...

Hey all. Recently my clutch pedal has become spongey and selecting gears is getting tough with the odd crunch here and there.. So my Dad and I are going to the change the clutch slave & master cylinders and also the clutch plate. Has anyone done this before? What steps need done to...

Morning all, I’ve got an issue with my 2006 147 JTDm clutch pedal, which has got progressively worse over the past 6 month, to the point now where Its extremely difficult to get her into 1st, and reverse gears, to the point now where I’m gingerly crunching it into gear. It first started about 6...

I've just been away for 5 weeks. Apart from feeling a bit on the heavy side (which could be normal, this is my first 147), I've never had a problem with the clutch on my 2006 147 jtdm 16v. The day I left I went to move the car and the clutch was doing very little. I had a flight to catch so I...

Is it a difficult job to replace the slave cylinder ?

Hi All I was driving my 159 3.2 Q4 and pushed it a little on the Highway, did about 140 - 160 km/h, also might have done a few quick gear changes to overtake.(I was late...) Then when I got into town at the third traffic light, as I pushed the clutch in it just dropped to the floor. no warning...

Hi there, I am looking for some wisdom of the forum, trying work out if the clutch or just the slave cylinder has gone on my 2005 156 crosswagen 1.9 jTD The biting point of the pedal got lower and lower and then dropped to the floor..I towed and then parked it up in disgust (had lots of...

Hi, can anyone tell me if the clutch slave cylinder is outside the box like the 156 jtd or is it a concentric cylinder inside the bell housing? The car is a 2009 registered 8 valve 120hp, it belongs to a guy in work, its got the standard failed slave syptoms but its stuck at his house so I cant...

Hi guys, my twinny spider has been loosing brake for a couple of weeks now, and once on the way home from work the clutch pedal felt sticky, So this afternoon I replaced the slave above the gearbox as this looked to be leaking onto top of gearbox. I fitted the new one but now the clutch petal...

Started to replace the slave cylinder as the rubber was in two pieces! I am struggling to undo the pipe union, any top tips? Currently soaking in penetrating fluid. Thanks

How many fixings to the gearbox are there?

My GTV has been losing a little brake/clutch fluid and i noticed it on the gearbox area around the slave cylinder so decided to change it. I found advice on this forum stating it should only take 2 hours max.....well thats right and wrong as i broke the fluid pipe to the old slave trying to get...

Hi how can I tell if my 2003 156 1.9 JTD has a concentric slave cylinder or other as unfortunately my clutch is past it's best and all the people quoting me are stating "may need a concentric slave cylinder" Thanks in advance

Hello Alfa Romeo family! :bowtie: I am new here so just exploring how things work here, BUT I have a problem! Will tell about my history with Alfa's later, so long story short - changed DMF , clutch kit and slave cylinder as a part of a gearbox repair. But when I did a test drive clutch felt...
