I have a problem with a 98 Brava 1.4sx.
The clutch does not appear to be disengaging fully when the pedal is pressed. It is very difficult/ not possible to put the car into gear. It is impossible to select reverse with the engine on. When in gear and with the clutch pedal fully down, the car creeps forward.
The problem does not seems to improve with pumping the clutch pedal.
What is the best way of finding out if the problem lies with the clutch slave cylinder or the clutch itself. From what I can see there is no visible leak and the fluid level doesn't appear to be going down.
Is there a way of testing the slave cylinder or removing the slave cylinder and testing the clutch manually?
Thanks in advance!
