Hello,
Has anybody tried to repair faulty clutch slave cylinder (6N0142063A)? As price for new increased for ~110 euros to ~320€ since 2012
In my case few days ago my car started to put transmission in "safe-mode" after unsuccessful gear engage. On still car I've checked triptronic mode, all gears were working, except 5th, it got engaged but could not be disengaged.
I've checked clutch movement, and saw that it was pulsating in short interval of movement. Checked clutch slave cylinder, potentiometer showed 1.9V in disengaged mode. In engaged mode it was showing values from 3.5V to 3.7V . As I read in manuals, difference should be at least 2V. After some playing with adjustments, clutch slave cylinder stopped responding at all, it's wakes up on after trying to pull it's cable manually. I remember I had very similar situation five years ago, afterwards I've changed that slave cylinder, and gladly doesnt throw it away
Yesterday I disassembled it ( wasn't so tricky as I suspected ), it was quite dirty inside, but all parts seems to be ok ( spring, sealing ring, cylinder ). What was broken is potentiometer linkage to the cylinder's cable, it holds by weak plastic ring. Now it's hard to tell could it be reason to fail in operation. I will try to put that old reassembled cylinder on my car to check does it operates.
Will keep you in touch
