Iveco won't let me buy a Workshop Manual yet,

but the owners book says the clutch system is sealed, (warning do not attempt to remove Master Cylinder lid) ,

The MC is made from polycarbonate , haven't eyeballed the slave cyl yet, but probably polycarbonate too.

So how are you supposed to service the system ? What about flushing it ??

I looked up the parts list and found the complete system is one part,
Master cylinder / pipe / slave cylinder all one piece pre filled with fluid and already bled , ready to go. How strange .
Is this a modern car thing or just an Iveco thing ??? :confused:

Amazing!
Way of the future I suspect. Sime automatic gearboxes are sealed for life. Life may be 100,000km.

yep, its a plastic Slave Cylinder too. Lucky the exhaust is on the other side.
No wonder there is a big guard over the Slave, to stop it getting smashed by a pebble :o , bizarre !!

at least its easy to change, the master just fits in a bayonet fitting like a light bulb !

No contamination, quick to change and no bleeding time so out of the workshop and back on the road sooner providing the kit is readily available.
