My clutch just stopped working today and I was wondering if someone could help. The fluid is good, my brother-in-law thinks it might be the it is the Master Cylinod

I wish you guys/gals would give info on what vehicle you need help with..just too many variables out there today..most cars today have fan sensors that are located in the radiator core fins..it turns on when the temp rises above the preset temp..and shuts off when it reaches the normal operating temp of the engine...fan clutches were designed to work with RPM's allowing the engine to rev and not lose power from fan spinning..a stuck clutch would cause high revs of the fan and reduced cruising speed..a lose one would cause over heating.hope this helps good luck..

either the slave or master cylinder (or both ) may need an overhaul , plunger(s) may not be returning as have gone past the seal, try this first and change fluid at same time , cheapest option , when driving does the clutch slip ? if not would think clutch assembly is ok

If you have a smoky problem don't bother
with the second trans & clutch opinion

Still want to keep it ??

The torque converter can't stop working. The converter clutch can, but it won't cause the symptom you're having and neither will the solenoid. Check the fluid level, low level can cause the symptom you're having. If it does this more when cold than hot and/or does it more on hills it's a good indication of low fluid.

First of all you do not bleed a clutch if it has a concentric (hydraulic) bearing inside the gearbox by pumping it, just open the bolt for the air to come out, no need of pressing, after few minutes you should see the fluid coming slowly (make sure your expansion tank is full), once it comes slowly tight the air bolt, press the clutch once or twice and repeat the whole process until the clutch pedal is hard. Should be fine from than.

Due to copyright laws it will be hard to get. The cheapest rout would be to go to http://www.alldatadiy.com/ It cost around$ 15 For one car and I think you get a years use of the info

about £300 is about right,but if you buy quintin hazel complete kit,any competant diy mech can do the job. only dont get the brother in law to do it,i have fixed more cars because they think its easy......yeh, to take it apart is....

check the slave cylinder, thats what pushes the clutch arm, they often start to leak and you loose the fluid and the pedal gets low start there good luck hope this is helpful.

When was the last time you changed the trasmission fluid in your van if it has never been done do it and the filter aswell, before you change the trasmission.

Sound like you may have cracked or broken the Clutch Master Cylinder or the plastic line that runs to the clutch slave which is mounted on the transmission. This causes the fluid to run out therefore you have not got enough fluid pushing the clutch pedal to make it work properly. Check your fluid level and see if its low. If it is, fill with fluid, pump the clutch and look for leaks.
