  • In this video I install a new clutch slave cylinder and I chase down some remaining shifter slop.
    The playlist below had everything I have done to the golf (almost).

    i am a former volkswagen technician, these transmissions have a TSB (technical service bulletin) that includes a grind in 1st gear. this TSB was related to a internal problem in the transmission, however it did not happen on ALL transmissions of these years i remember it being the first few years of the MK4 era. i love your videos and hope this isn’t the case for you, best of luck!

      Wow!! Thanks!! That makes sense. I have almost exclusively driven manuals since 2005. This is the only one that has given me this kind of trouble. Now it makes sense that it kept getting better but not "completely" gone. I think the last mod I did helped the most. But I'm grind free for two weeks now(mods plus awareness of when it typically grinds). Perhaps I will swap the transmission when I do the clutch.

      @@MaqsVids yeah i personally have owned a plethora of mk4s and i can tell you first hand there isn’t a single one that hasn’t grinded first gear. but a little trick that’s worked for me is pop it in second then go into first, it will suprise you on how much smoother first goes in once you do this. try it out and let me know!

      ​@@codysilva8084 hey cody, i was wondering if you could answere a question or two i have about replaceing my 2002 mk4 vr6. Can i follow this video in order to change my clutch slave cylander or is the vr6 built difforently. I saw in a comment of forum that the vr6 requires the transmission to be taken out in order to reach the slave, is that true?

    Ideally you want to change that o ring on the hard pipe before pushing it into the new slave cylinder.

      @optimalorlando 10 месяцев назад

      Right, surprised they didn't include it with the new slave

  • @chrismccleve7845
    @chrismccleve7845 Год назад +1

    This is extremely helpful. I have a 99.5 TDI, still have the 02A but have the same exact grinding issue when going in to first and it’s obnoxious. I bought the dieselgeek bushing kit and it took out all the slop in the shifter mechanism but I think I made a mistake on the front end where the cables connect to the transmission so seeing the last bit of your video made me think I have the same thing happening. I’m anxiously awaiting your next video.

    • @octavianpopa871
      @octavianpopa871 Год назад +1

      Was thinking same thing. Is the o ring a separate item or is it included with the new S. C.? By the way, thanks for the very good video and tips.

      @MaqsVids  6 месяцев назад +1

      Hey! I am no expert and I have never worked on a MK5. But, I would start with looking at the linkages or cables. There is something not moving properly. Start at the shifter and work your way to the transmission making sure all the components are in place and intact. Good luck

    Aww man, looks so easy. I have a polo mk4, the slave cylinder is broken, and every new piece I ordered doesn’t fit well, spilling oil where the hose connects. Tried to replace the o ring, tried different brands, but the original cylinder is no longer on sale and it seems that no replacement fits

    I swapped mine just like you did but I can’t get any fluid to the new master and I can’t get it to bleed

    • @MaqsVids
      @MaqsVids  Год назад

      Uh oh. Have you had any luck yet? Did all the fluid drain out? Sometimes you have to pump the clutch pedal a lot. I have also seen on forums where people get new ones and they are bad.

    • @adivarso8175

      You need to reverse bleed it to push the trapped air out.

    Why didn’t you just clamp the flex hose 🤔 it wouldn’t drip at all.

    • @optimalorlando
      @optimalorlando 10 месяцев назад +1

      Clamping the flex line can potentially damage the line, same type as brake line hose and should never be clamped.
