Where is the clutch master cylinder reservoir in a Hyundai Tucson 05?

It sounds like something not put back correctly or adjusted. Was the slave cylinder arm push in when you bled the system? There may be air behind it. Did you use a pressure bleed system, slave up to Master. Lots of help in the links.

bleeding the brakes can be done manually with the help of another person. have your helper pump the brakes and hold the pedal until you release the bleeder enough to get air or fluid flowing and then shut off. you can then tell the helper to pump again but only after you have closed the bleeder. do this two times on each wheel starting with the wheel in the rear furthest from the master cylinder. then the other rear wheel then the front wheel furthest from the master cylinder and finally the other front wheel. you should get a better pedal each step. don't let the master cylinder reservoir run dry during this procedure.

is your hydraulic fluid reservoir for the clutch full of fluid

check /replace clutch cable or replace master cylinder. If the clutch has not been replaced it may need a clutch kit as the indications are that the pressure plate is weak ( worn clutch plate or from overheated clutch)

Yes, the reservoir is part of the Clutch Master Cylinder Assembly. Below is an exploded view of your Clutch Master Cylinder. The master cylinder mounts to the firewall in the engine compartment directly in front of your clutch pedal. Note in the picture the part marked "pushrod". This is what actually connects to the clutch pedal itself.

When you open the hood and you're looking directly in front like facing the driver's seat it will be on the right corner when you're facing the driver's seat. It looks like a break fluid reservoir only smaller and it's usually about a foot or so below from the top.
Good luck

its on the right hand side behind the air filter box its an opaque bottle with a black screw top the fluid should be between min/max use DOT3 or 4 to top up

If your vehicle is a stick shift, likely it's the master cylinder for the clutch. stick your finger in there and see if it smells and feels the same as what's in the brake master. If it appears low, check where the clutch rod goes into it in the drivers side of the firewall. If you find some fluid there its leaking. (also check line and slave cylinder that works the clutch) Could also be steering fluid but I've never seen them put that there.

Hi

Best to get the help of a friend to pump the clutch pedal for you.

Take care with the brake fluid, as it removes paintwork !

Top up your clutch fluid reservoir, connect a bleeding tube to the nipple on your slave cylinder, and put the other end of tube in a container.

Get your friend to pump pedal 3 times, and then hold to the floor.

Open the nipple for 5 seconds or so, then close.

Repeat this about 6 to 8 times topping up the fluid as you go.

You should then find, that the air is out of your system, and your pedal is back to normal !

Good luck !

A FixYa rating would be nice.... Thank you ! John.

Thank you for the request. Since the car only has 24,000 miles on it, I would take it back to the dealer. It does sound like that your clutch needs an adjustment of some type. Since I do not own a Hyundai I have no idea what the actual problem might be. I just did some research and found out that the clutch in your car is hydrolic (meaning that it uses a master and slave cylinder with hydrolic fluid to push the clutch arm when you push the clutch pedal with your foot). Trying to work on this type of clutch system can sometimes be a very hard to do. With the small amount of miles your car has on it, I would get the dealer involved in solving this problem. It could be something as simple as bleeding air from the hydrolic system of the clutch or it might be replacement of either the master cylinder, the slave cylinder and/or the fluid line that goes in between those two cylinders.

Much good luck in fixing this problem.
