Detailed Description

LuK has extensive background in the transition from mechanical to hydraulic clutch release systems, and that experience is reflected in the LSC516. This clutch slave cylinder is used in manual transmission setups where hydraulic pressure transfers pedal input to the clutch release mechanism. It is a direct-fit service part for select Volkswagen models, including 2005-2018 Volkswagen Jetta, 2006-2010 Volkswagen Beetle, 2012-2017 Volkswagen Beetle, 2012-2015 Volkswagen Passat, 2010-2011 Volkswagen Golf, and 2013 Volkswagen Golf. If you are replacing a worn Volkswagen Jetta clutch slave cylinder or servicing a Volkswagen Beetle hydraulic clutch release system, LSC516 is the catalog number to verify.

Common Issues It Can Address

  • Soft or inconsistent clutch pedal feel
  • Hydraulic fluid leakage at the slave cylinder
  • Difficulty disengaging the clutch
  • Incomplete clutch release during shifting
  • Loss of hydraulic pressure in the clutch release circuit

Installation Notes and Tips

Confirm the vehicle’s manual transmission application and match the part number before installation. Inspect the hydraulic line, fittings, and surrounding clutch release components for wear or contamination during service. After installation, bleed the hydraulic system according to the vehicle service procedure to restore proper pedal operation.

Quality Assurance

LuK is part of Schaeffler’s clutch release system expertise, with a long history in hydraulic clutch release development. The LSC516 is built for the listed Volkswagen fitments and should be verified against the vehicle’s year, make, model, and transmission configuration before installation.
