Hello, I'm Danny.

If you can would you take a picture with your cell phone and upload it here ? From what you describe it's called the clutch slave cylinder. Hope this helps and hope to hear back from you soon.Thanks for using 2CarPros.

Hello,

Thanks for the pictures. That is the clutch master cylinder that is bad here are instructions on how to replace the unit in the diagrams below. To bleed the system once complete gently pump the clutch pedal down to the floor for about 5 minutes and the system will self bleed. Check out the diagrams (below). Please let us know if you need anything else to get the problem fixed.
