    As a standard procedure on replacing the MTF, always check the MTF strainer.

    It seemed that the strainer cover was never removed in the past.

    Spent extra hour with it and finally, it started to rotate slightly and it came off.


    There were small particles inside the meshed filter so several miss-shifts were carried

    Before start bleeding the CL Hyd system, place the bleeder plug pointing upwards to help the bleeding process.


    As the master cyl was primed before the installation, it took just one pedal stroke before the fluid level started to change.


    However, super dirty black fluid kept coming out from the bleeder even after lots of pedal strokes with self top up container attached to the reservoir. ...

    Only managed to work on this NSX for a limited time today due to the wasp nest issue but started to replace the Slave Cyl.

    When looked at the area, noticed that the GBox GND point was pushed away heavily in the past.


    It was still secure enough so it should not cause any electrical issues but something to be reviewed at the time of next clutch disc service. ...

    While removing the coolant hoses and blower motor fan for other services, decided to finish the Clutch Hydraulic service.

    It is one of the most common failures on our NSX.


    Sooner or later, you will see the fluid leakage from the Master/Slave cyl or from the hose where the fitting is crimped.


    Almost all of the failure with the CL Hyd system will start as a tiny leakage so it is important to deal ...

    Someone tried to fix the grease leakage without removing the seized joint from the hub.

    This boot band is not the one from the factory nor the one in the OEM service kit.


    Some sort of aftermarket one was used and probably installed it while the drive shaft was on the car.
