  • Step by step video on how to replace the clutch master cylinder and clutch pedal spring on a 2003 Ford Focus SVT. This video should cover 1st generation models from 2000-2007 and also 2nd generation models from 2008-2010. Ford used this same clutch master cylinder throughout all these years on the Ford Focus. Clutch master cylinder was purchased from Amazon and I have provided a link below.

    Can I ask you a stupid question?
    The piece that you unhook at 23:15 from the metal stud coming off the pedal...what is keeping it from coming off under normal circumstances?
    My clutch works but that piece falls off. It has a lot of wiggle room. Just slides clean off when the clutch is engaged.

    I have a question. If the Cylinder is out that means there's no pressure on the clutch to reach the engage switch right?

    • @BLUECOLLARGARAGE

      Yes you are correct. When the slave cylinder goes out the clutch pedal will have no pressure to disengage the pressure plate from the clutch.

      @@AllGsReact do you have any fluid leaking like mine was? Most likely the master cylinder is going bad. The clutch master cylinder sends fluid to the slave cylinder. I would try replacing the master cylinder first because in order to change out the slave cylinder you would need to drop the whole transmission and then at that point might as well replace the clutch.

      I'm sure it would work fine without. It probably helps protect the plastic from rubbing and helps create a noise and temperature barrier from the firewall.

    I got a Perfection Clutch brand , the plastic arm on yours is plastic. On mine and is metal ! And has metal elsewhere. When they wear bad like mine did , the arm will deflect sideways so bad it will pop off of the clutch pedal nub. You will be stuck in traffic without being able to disengage the clutch. Got to a parking lot using the starter to propel the car.
    Until I could fix mine to keep arm on nub found a just right one-way fastener like they use on fenders. Circular with teeth to hold onto nub.
