clutch system flush on BG?

derb · 04-09-2009, 11:15 AM

i'm going to do a brake flush this weekend on the BG, and was thinking i might as well do the clutch system at the same time.

however, i cant find the clutch resorvoir, does it feed off the brake system? is it on top of the pedal?

my last car had a cable clutch so i'm not used to hydraulic systems for the clutch.

also, is it just as easy as the brakes or should i leave it to a mechanic?

same reservior as the brake system. the clutch master cylinder feeds from it.

you just bleed the clutch the same as the brakes. order would be RL, RR, FL, FR, clutch.

ask someone else to help you, get them to do the 19 1/2 pumps and the last full one and hold. then you screw the nipple back in. fill res each time after, so:- RL > fill > RR > fill > etc.

haha sounds like porn movie. lots or screwing and nipples.

no worries mate, i've done brake bleeds about 20 times now. i was just worried that i couldn't see any clutch res in the engine bay.
