Volvo Slave Cylinder Vent Pipe Bleeder Assembly - Genuine Volvo 30787651

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 Genuine Volvo

The original parts used by Volvo to build your car are available as replacement parts under the “Genuine Volvo” brand. Manufactured under the direction of Volvo, expect excellent quality and a premium price since these parts are exclusively available through the Volvo Dealership network.

You may not realize this, but the parts that make up your Volvo are not necessarily manufactured by Volvo. No cause for concern, as Volvo designs the part, hires a manufacturer, and ensures its quality to you. In fact, many of these manufacturers have been making parts for Volvo for decades. In our industry these manufacturers are called OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturers), and these are often brands you recognize, including Lemforder, ZF, Sachs, Bosch, Valeo, Zimmermann, Siemens VDO, Corteco, and more. Don’t be surprised to open that Genuine Volvo parts box and find an OEM branded part inside, simply with the addition of a Volvo logo.

Be sure to keep an eye out for OE tags on our product pages to quickly identify parts coming direct from OE manufacturers. That extra bit of insight could save you some serious money while shopping! Refer to our OE Academy for further information regarding the OE/OEM tags throughout the site.
