You have a leaking master or slave hydraulic clutch cylinder. I recommend you replace both

  • Anonymous Jul 21, 2012

    Ye, think I'll try the master cylinder first as the slave is inside the bell housing. Thanks.

    The slave is the one that leaks.

SOURCE: hard clutch pedal

You cannot bleed a servo. it runs using the vacuum from either inlet manifold, or a seperate vac pump.Ensure pump is working if fitted (end of camshaft) the pipes to the servo are not leaking by removing the pipe from servo and start veh. If there is good suction then its servo failure. hard pedals can also be caused by pressure plate fatigue in the clutch itself.

SOURCE: have freelander td4 03 plate,

Definitely a hydraulic issue. Iknow you said they were both changed, but its usually the master & slave assembly that go faulty on the Freelander. Both parts come filled with fluid and pre-bled and only require fitting, no bleeding. Check with garage to make sure they did not split / bleed them.

Can this inspection and removal of the Clutch actuator components be done without removal of the Bellmouth.Would the unusual hissing sound on depressing the Clutch Pedal indicate an airlocked system?

there is no air in a hydraulic system or if there is , the clutch will not disengage
if you have any sound when depressing the clutch pedal, it is most likely from the throw out bearing running dry when pressure is applied to the pressure plate fingers
so it amounts to this
if you press on the clutch pedal and you can readily engage first gear or reverse and you have steady operation when you take your foot of the pedal , the clutch system is working as it should
that means that any noise you get when pressing on the pedal is when the throw out bearing is placed under load and as there is no other part that is moving, that is the logical area
one point here --if it is an air noise and of that you are sure , when people press on the clutch pedal, to stop vehicle movement they also have the foot resting or pressing on the brake and a hissing noise here can be from a vacuum leak at the brake pedal from the brake booster
easy to check before pulling a box that doesn't have a problem

The Clutch disc and Release Bearing for the TD4-Freelander, were replaced recently. The Pressure Plate was still in a good condition.Gears difficult to engage.Please advise.Tks.John.

Most likely still has air in hydraulic clutch slave system. Many transmisions will have dificulty shifting if clutch doesn't full disengage. If air is in system it won't allow full disengage thus difficulty in shifting even possible grinding gears

Unfortunately, and I don't like saying this in the least, the problem is going to be the transmission leading to other issues. Your going to have to have the transmission repaired.

The problem is on your master and clutch slave cylinders. You said were dry and put clutch fluid. Wont do the proper job for clutch work as the inside rubber seals are not strong enough to make the pressure needed to release the clutch.

The cluch pedal does not come back up at times and the following time it does not work and consequently cannot swith to a gear on my Landrover Freelander 2003, 2L. diesel. Gilbert

i would change the clutch and while you are at it i would also change the clutch arm and bush as they are prone to seizing causing a stiff clutch action and dropped peddle and slave cylinder failure , slave is plastic and the ears and white coller snap off, when cold if your car feels like its jerking as you move off i would deffently say it is the clutch arm and not the clutch, but as you will need to remove gear box any way i would renew the clutch and thrust bearing.

Clutch pedal does not need to be lifted far away from floor before engaing, less travel than usual, 2003 TD4 , the pedal is not as firm as usual, softer pedal.....

if its a clutch cable it been adjusted to tightly, common after a new cluth, will start to lift after use but double check the cable is not to tight as it may snap. if its hydrolic then the oil coild be low or air locked.
