Beck/Arnley 072-9730 Clutch Master Cylinder

This was a great replacement for the stock part. It has worked flawlessly and as expected.I will say that although the install is easy conceptually, being able to reach the spot to make the install took some effort.

So I bought this product with the hopes it'll correct the godforsaken groan/click the civic Si's are known for.Received this and checked out fine. Was able to push it in with good resistance to it, so I went ahead and removed the old one from the car. Now the old Oem piece iIwas able to push it in by hand without an extreme amount of pressure. Just like that I knew the part was going straight to the trash.Next I installed the B/A part, which in its own is not an easy task but still a pretty straightforward process. Went ahead and bled the clutch system, Here I used a simple 1man bleeder kit from a local parts store. With all air bubbles removed and clutch pedal fully adjusted to spec, . Gave it a few more pumps and Oh my what a difference thus made. It's made my car feel brand new again, the shift are smoother the popping/clicking/groan sounds are all gone. This definitely gets the the job done and is a Perfect match to the Oem part that had badly failed for half the price.I would recommend this to any 8th gen civic owner 06± to get this to replace their stock master cylinder. Going the em1 cmc route is more $$ for the same result as this.The entire install process took me about 3.5hours with no special tools just alot of patience... Oh don't forget to have your torque wrench at hand. Very important anytime you work on your vehicle.

One of the bolts is SLIGHLY off. Not enough to be a huge issue, but enough that it was tough to get it to fit. Also, the clip for holding the rod is SLIGHLY to big around the outside, so it wouldn't fit, but the old one worked fine as a substitute. I've had it in for a couple of days and, so far, no issues... No more creaking/groaning pedal, and shifts are SOOOO MUCH smoother.

Good quality.

After a few months it turned very loud and noisy…

Item was incorrect according to mechanic who tried to install it. It kept hitting the firewall and preventing flush mounting of unit.

This was a pain to install but that’s Honda’s design, not specific to this manufacturer. The part is identical to the OEM and works perfectly.

Fits like oem. No problem installing and doesn’t make any noise.
