Clutch suddenly not disengaging after high revs - Toyota Yaris Forums

The breather hole on the front side of the bell housing is fairly big actually. There's a rubber grommet in it with the entry facing downward. You can just pull the grommet out. Should be plenty of room to stick a 8mm camera.

Not sure what you'd cap the brake line with. Maybe a spare piece of crimped line? You'd certainly get a LOT of pressure back on the pedal if you did that. Worth a try.

Normal bleeding through the T piece will displace the air. I was sceptical as well when I bled mine because there's only one line into the slave. However, bleeding it repeatedly through the T piece on the front of the box does work. Given you had a sudden failure while driving, it's either going to be the slave or master that's kaput.

It's also normal for the clutch to lose all pressure during the bleeding process, similar to what happens with brakes.

How many km's on the slave cyl? Was the clutch replaced without replacing the slave at any point?
