Clutch Hydraulic Damper - Necesary ??

[NatB]

Hi all,

RE my pride and joy Disco TDI 200.

After having to bleed my clutch twice this week I have found a leak in the coupling between fluid hose and hydraulic damper.

Would there be any problems with removing the damper from the system ??

Would I need a new hose or would it be as simple as swapping the line over ( they look similar on the outside ie are both 11mm )

I like to keep things simple and dont really want to buy the part....

Regards and Thanks

had same problem a few years ago.just replaced hydraulic hose from mc to clutch slave and bled. so much easer to bled and feels the same at the pedal.:)(picked up hose fromrepco or one of those places)

just reread your post,no the damper is not needed.later models did not have them.they were fitted to remove vibration (i believe) at clutch pedal but after bypass the pedal felt the same.hope this helps:D
