My 2003 2.5L 5 speed, 106K miles, has the dreaded clutch pedal problem, where the pedal sticks down. I pull it back up manually from time to time. Today, I noticed a significant brake fluid leak where I park, and suspect it's from the clutch master cylinder.

So, I jacked up the car and went in search of the clutch master cylinder. I don't see it. I can easily see the bottom of the brake master cylinder and it's not leaking.

Any thoughts?

Thanks!!!

 

Master cylinder is under clutch pedal. Perhaps you mean slave cylinder?

 

Ah, thanks.

My oil dripping was not brake fluid after all. It was transfer case lube.

 

It took me days to located the clutch slave cylinder. I wish I found this diagram before wasting so much time. Excellent diagram.
