JST Posted June 30, 2007 Share Posted June 30, 2007 What is the bit mounted next to the slave cylinder on a 200tdi disco lump? the clutch pipes go through it from the master enroute to the slave, is it a booster of some sort? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BogMonster Posted June 30, 2007 Share Posted June 30, 2007 it's a damper, designed to take out oscillations in the hydraulics and prevent clutch judder or some such thing quite why you would get oscillations in the hydraulics unless you had a twitchy foot, I never understood ... but they have a habit of blowing out leaving you with no clutch, my old 200Tdi Discovery did this, later ones are a different design IIRC the fact that LR did away with it on later vehicles suggests it probably wasn't needed in the first place Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Les Henson Posted June 30, 2007 Share Posted June 30, 2007 I've removed them before and there didn't appear to be any difference to clutch operation. Les. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
