Porsche Clutch Slave Cylinder - Sachs SH6533

Product Information

A clutch slave cylinder is a hydraulic component in a manual transmission system that assists in engaging and disengaging the clutch. When the clutch pedal is pressed, hydraulic fluid is forced into the slave cylinder, which then moves the clutch release fork, allowing the driver to shift gears smoothly. It works in tandem with the clutch master cylinder to transfer force from the pedal to the clutch assembly.

• Difficulty Shifting Gears: If the slave cylinder fails, it may not fully disengage the clutch, making it difficult to shift gears smoothly, especially into first or reverse
• Soft or Spongy Clutch Pedal: A common symptom is a spongy or soft feel when pressing the clutch pedal, as the slave cylinder fails to build adequate hydraulic pressure
• Clutch Pedal Stuck to the Floor: In severe cases, the clutch pedal may stick to the floor or be slow to return, preventing proper clutch engagement and making it hard to drive.

About Sachs

ZF Sachs AG, also known as Fichtel & Sachs was founded in Schweinfurt in 1895 and was a well-known German family business. At its last point as an independent company, the company name was Fichtel & Sachs AG. In 1997, the automotive supplier was taken over by Mannesmann and renamed Mannesmann Sachs AG. As of 2001, Sachs belonged to ZF Friedrichshafen as a subsidiary company ZF Sachs AG. In 2011, ZF Sachs, like other Group subsidiaries, was legally merged with ZF Friedrichshafen AG and the independent business units integrated into the ZF divisions. Sachs has since become a brand of ZF Friedrichshafen AG.
