Odd Freelander clutch issue.

Paxmanmerv · Apr 4, 2019

Afternoon all!
Got an strange one here,
2013 td4 Freelander with an odd clutch problem. Not long had a new clutch kit & concentric slave cylinder fitted so would like to think that’s all good.
Was ok for a few weeks & now the clutch pedal occasionally sticks down.
Anyone come across this before?

Sounds like the master cylinder, I would get it back to who ever fitted the clutch & slave and see what they have to say because it could be that.

We fitted it so only got ourselves to blame!

Possibly air in the cylinder?

The plot thickens!
Bled it through both conventionally & reverse bleed. Pedal still sticks down now & again. Going for a Master cylinder change.
Its a 2013 car & the pedal box fittings look different than in my workshop manual. Looks a devil of a job to do!
Anyone done one & can give me some pointers here?
Many thanks all!!

A D3 that I work on suffered from the pedal sticking down at random intervals. I took the MC out and stripped it down, as it was difficult to bleed. I found a split in a seal, but couldn't find a replacement. I ended up using CA glue to repair it. I also altered the angle the pedal return spring sat when the pedal was fully down. This made a great improvement, and it still working correctly now.
