Clutch Master Cylinder MC229

The EXEDY OEM MC229 Clutch Master Cylinder is engineered to meet original equipment standards, ensuring a perfect fit and function for your Mazda Miata. This critical component in the manual transmission system is responsible for transferring the force from the clutch pedal to the clutch slave cylinder. Manufactured with precision, it helps maintain consistent hydraulic pressure essential for smooth clutch engagement and disengagement. The part number MC229 corresponds to this specific model, making it easier to identify and order the correct replacement part. This clutch master cylinder is compatible with various Mazda Miata models from 1990-2005, designed to replace the original unit and restore proper clutch pedal feel and hydraulic function. It is recommended for use when experiencing symptoms such as a spongy or soft clutch pedal, difficulty shifting gears smoothly, hydraulic fluid leaks from the master cylinder, incomplete clutch disengagement, or reduced clutch pedal travel. When installing the EXEDY OEM Clutch Master Cylinder MC229, ensure the hydraulic system is properly bled to remove any air pockets and verify all connections are secure and leak-free. It is also advised to inspect the clutch slave cylinder and related components during installation to maintain overall system integrity. Proper installation will help restore clutch performance and extend the life of your manual transmission system. The MC229 features an 8-1/2" disc size with 22 splines for 1990-2005 1.8L models and a 7-7/8" disc size with 22 splines for 1990-1993 1.6L models. A notable exclusion is that the master cylinder will not work with 04-05 MAZDASPEED Miatas unless used with full length clutch lines.
