So technically it's not a CSC failure and a hell of alot cheaper to replace. However the symptoms are the same --- no clutch pedal [pressure].

Right, my point is that guys report CSC failure but with no fluid loss, take to the dealer, dealer "changes CSC", and sometimes CSC and MC, then clutch works, but I'm wondering if they only change the MC and that's the issue and charge for CSC work? Either way it's a PIA.
