DIY - 2014 Opel Corsa D 1.4: Diagnose and change the clutch master cylinder (left-hand drive)

The clutch master cylinder on our little Corsa failed as we were bleeding the clutch line as part of replacing the brake fluid. We investigated both the master cylinder and the clutch line and pressure regulator, in order to also confirm that the latter was not clogged or broken as well. The procedure is more complicated than its equivalent for right-hand drive (RHD) because the components are more difficult to remove.

The OE code for the clutch master cylinder: GM 55190993
Type of brake fluid used: DOT4
