Saturn Ion Clutch Slave Cylinder

The Clutch Slave Cylinder found in Saturn Ion cars co-ordinates with the Clutch Master Cylinder in order to release the clutch when the pedal is pushed to enable shifting from one gear to another. The pressure from the master cylinder causes the clutch slave cylinder to extend a rod which in turn pushes a lever or a fork to release the clutch and allow secure shifting of the transmission. Problems with the clutch slave cylinder can contribute to dangerous shifting of gears and harm to the car transmission that is why the hasty replacement is needed if there are signs of its deterioration. The clutch slave cylinder is another hydraulic unit of a vehicle that allows for smooth disengagement of the clutch increasing the general maneuverability and safety of a car.

Each OEM Saturn Ion Clutch Slave Cylinder we offer is competitively priced and comes with the assurance of the manufacturer's warranty for the part.
