The concentric slave cylinder is the hydraulic actuator that operates the clutch release bearing — it sits inside the gearbox bellhousing, concentric with the input shaft, and is operated directly by the clutch master cylinder via the hydraulic clutch line. A failed or leaking CSC will result in clutch disengagement problems and must be replaced to restore correct clutch operation. Recommended as a replacement item whenever the gearbox is removed for clutch or flywheel work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitment:\u003c\/strong\u003e Abarth 500, 595, and 695\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eComponent:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hydraulic concentric slave cylinder (CSC)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLocation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Inside gearbox bellhousing, concentric with input shaft\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eOEM Cross-Reference Part Numbers\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis concentric slave cylinder replaces the following OEM part numbers:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e55210245 \/ 55210246 \/ 55214650\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e55224014 \/ 55231613 \/ 55238614\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e55240573 \/ 55243919 \/ 55243920\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e55243921 \/ 6000100339\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSymptoms of a Failing Concentric Slave Cylinder\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClutch pedal feels spongy, soft, or goes to the floor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClutch will not disengage fully — difficulty selecting gears or gears crunch when changing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClutch fluid level dropping without visible external leaks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClutch judder or inconsistent engagement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHydraulic fluid visible inside the bellhousing on inspection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy Replace the CSC During Clutch or Flywheel Work?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe concentric slave cylinder is located inside the gearbox bellhousing and is only accessible when the gearbox is removed. Since gearbox removal is required for any clutch or flywheel replacement, it is strongly recommended to replace the CSC at the same time — regardless of whether it has failed. The labour cost of a second gearbox removal to replace a CSC that fails shortly after a clutch job far outweighs the cost of the part. At this price point, replacing the CSC preventatively during clutch or flywheel work is straightforward insurance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eRecommended Replacement Interval\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe CSC should be replaced whenever the gearbox is removed. It is a wear item with a finite service life and is not serviceable — when it fails, it must be replaced as a complete unit. Given its inaccessible location, preventative replacement during any gearbox-off work is best practice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eRelated Products\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClutch kit:\u003c\/strong\u003e Abarth 500\/595 Competizione 180bhp Clutch Kit — complete disc, pressure plate, and release bearing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlywheel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Abarth 500\/595 Solid Mass Flywheel — DMF replacement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlywheel bolts:\u003c\/strong\u003e Abarth 500\/595 Flywheel Bolt — single-use TTY, 6 required per flywheel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFitment \u0026amp; Compatibility\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for the Abarth 500, 595, and 695.
