0986486631 Bosch Concentric slave cylinder

This part basically takes the pressure from your master cylinder—when you push the clutch pedal—and turns it into the mechanical movement that actually disengages the clutch. It pushes on the throw – out bearing, which then releases the engine from the transmission. It’s a hydraulic component, so it uses brake fluid to do its job. Think of it as the muscle that separates the engine and transmission when you need to shift gears. It sits right inside the bellhousing, close to the transmission. That’s why it’s called ‘concentric’—it’s positioned around the input shaft of the transmission. It works directly with the clutch fork, creating the force needed to push everything apart. It's an essential piece of the whole clutch system. Well, if this starts to fail, you’ll notice if you're having trouble getting into gear, especially first or reverse. It could also cause the clutch pedal to feel spongy or soft. A leak in the cylinder itself will obviously make things worse. If it fails completely, you’ll likely lose the ability to disengage the clutch at all, and that’s a pretty big problem. A failing cylinder doesn’t give much warning, so it's good preventative maintenance to replace it during a clutch job. You can find these on a site like Fixparts Online, and they're generally not too bad to tackle if you're comfortable working on cars.
