Hi. I was told my master and slave cylinder are in need of replacement. I was wondering if anyone knew a good place to purchase them from since Honda likely charges an arm and a leg. Has anyone ever ordered from this place below? .

Not sure what all is needed, or where to get it.

Try to look for signs of leakage at the master or slave cylinders or the cable between them. Leak will cause soft pedal and possibly incomplete clutch actuation. Flush and bleed the clutch line and refill with fresh fluid. You might fix the problem cheaply yourself or through a local mechanic that way. Odds of both master and slave cylinders actually being broke at the same time are pretty slim.

It's the dealer's labor rate that makes the quote high. Parts are probably less than half the total bill. That's normal. Try hartopguy website (he's a sponsor here) for new parts prices (a little cheaper than your dealer probably). Also, you can get rebuild kits for both cylinders for dirt cheap. Or try the classifieds here for used parts.

Dealer's service department has little incentive to spend much time diagnosing problem to save you money. Some often just replace parts until it works, and make money off the parts and labor, when a more thorough inspection might provide a simpler cheaper solution. Uninformed customers are their (and many mechanic's) wildest dream.
