Default clutch slave cylinder

well after 700 trouble free miles i thought i would take the s for the renault world series.

Bad idea. Floppy clutch pedal and a leak under the car. I thought it was the hose split but the man from the rac said it was the slave when he got under the car.

Well i have had to abandon the car at a garage local to silverstone.

Anyone know the cost of a replacement? I cant see the swap taking too long.

Ouch .. damn it.

Oh well. If it needs changine though, I've little option.

Any other things I could do at the same time?

I'm going to get them to re-grease the bearing while the fork is out.

i could be wrong - but im guessing it's just a seal that popped?

cant you get repair kits for slave cylinders; like you can with calipers?

Prices look good.

mikey - Thought about that, but would prefer new.
veehexx - Probably. But I don't have time to pull apart and check. Just want it back on the road.
shopman - Cheers for the link .. time to find out shipping to the UK.
