Hi, I want to ask a question about this slight oil mist from slave cylinder, I know that is probably from the clutch, but I want to know if anyone else has that problem and how it solved, is it need to bring down the transmission? Thank you

I went to Peugeot for a full check up the car is generally ok no problems, but they told me about this one slight oil mist from the slave cylinder. Yes my clutch is perfect no problem with that

It's not coming from the engine, it's coming from the slave cylinder this is what they told me, i don't know a lot that why I asked.

If your slave cylinder is leaking then your clutch peddle will start to feel spongy & over time this will impact on your gear changes you need to find out if its hydraulic fluid leaking somewhere
