2007 C6 Slave Cylinder bad? Next Step?
Hi All, reposting here: accidentally posted another thread in the general forum
Clutch Pedal fell to the floor, Installed new master Cylinder and it didn't fix it.
I also purchased a new slave cylinder assembly.
After installing the new master cylinder i notice i have clutch fluid leaking out of the bell housing.
I add new fluid in and try to pressurize the system;
as pour it in and pump the pedal if flows out on to the ground.
Clutch is pretty new. Less then 5000 miles,
I am wondering if taking on the Slave cylinder replacement project should be my next step?
If so, I am not having good luck finding a walk through video.
any help there?
Thanks!!

Bring us up to speed on the new clutch, and if you added in a remote bleeder at the same time.
Hence could be the slave (find it strange since a new slave should have been part of the new clutch, and would dare to guess that the TB free lash was not correct to begin with if the slave failed), or could just be the remote bleeding leaking instead.
