Hi All Members,
My van: 84-1.9L, 4-speed, non ac.
Please help!
It appears that I have a leak in my clutch's hydraulic line.  My clutch pedal lost its resistance and went all the way to the floor, and engaging into gear was very difficult (multi-pumping of the clutch pedal to build up the pressure).
I checked the fluid reservoir, the fluid level was okay.  the brake is working fine.
I checked the clutch's master cylinder, and it is dry.
I checked the clutch's slave cylinder, and there was brake fluid everywhere.
Please confirm the diagnosis that I might have a failed slave cylinder.
If yes, I am new to the vanagon era, please advise how to fix the problem.
If not, please give me some suggestion.
FYI, I had the clutch assembly (bearing, pressure plate and disk) replaced ~6mos ago using Sach's parts by Fast German Auto in Santa Ana.
Reading the official Bentley service manual, and to my surprise, I learn that VW uses the same reservoir for the brake and the clutch.  If so, if there is any leak in the hydraulic line, both systems will fail.  But my break is working fine.  Hmmm.  This is very mind boggling.  Please shred some wisdom to this poor soul.
Many thanks in advance to all members.
Happy Thanksgiving.
Cheers, Andrew
