hi guys

just heard from my mechanic... he changed my master cylinder - slave clyinder or whatever its called for my gearbox as it was not goin into gear and was crunching when i tried to. he said it was a hydraulic problem and changing these would help. it hasnt, and said will do some adjusting to try fix it. it crunches and doesnt go into gear and now is saying its my clutch. im confused... ive seen many threads, my car before i took it into the mechanic wasnt selecting very easily, wioth me pretty much forcing it into gear but didnt crunch though mainly probelms in firsta nd reverse... and the other gears were kinda ok... but then the car shit itself and like the clutch or watever gave up cause it would crunch and wouldnt go into gear now...

wat do u think is the problem.. wat if i change the clutch and doesnt fix

if you drove with stuffed master or slave cylinder for a long time and crunched gears many times chances are you have stuffed your clutch too.

same happened to me... my slave cylinder was leaking fluid and my clutch went just couple of days after replacing the slave.

from your first post i understand that your clutch already stopped working - does the clutch pedal feel so stiff you can barely push it in and when you try to select gear it crunches? if yes, u probably need a new clutch.

did your mechanic say your gearbox is blown? coz i dont see any reason why should the whole gearbox be blown. im pretty sure he can check out the gearbox before to see if anything is wrong there, but you'll probably need a new clutch either way... as i said before your clutch probably got stuffed cause the master cylinder didnt engage it properly and clutch was wearing out faster.

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By ARB26 · Posted

      Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂

      Cas issue

      The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.

      Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.

      Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
