I've seen this happen lots of times and it's usually easier to do it all at one time - only have to bleed it once. The Clutch Master Cylinder is PN# 996.423.171.05 and should also run somewhere around $50. Good Luck!...

Hmm,perhaps I will do that. Changing the Master doesn't seem that hard,more time consuming. First I have to figure out how to remove the hydraulic line from the Slave first. I haven't worked on anything like this on the Boxster,so this is all new.

Does anyone what size socket I should use to remove the clutch slave mounting bolt?

Does anyone know how to remove the hydraulic line?

Is it as simple as untwisting and then retwisting on the new Slave?
