Clutch fluid change

jw_96 · Mar 23, 2017

Long story short, I went to check fluids and noticed that the clutch fluid is gray and murky and gross. Bleeding the clutch will be easy, I am just wondering where the bleeder valve is. Also if anyone has tips please share. Thanks.

Are you experiencing issues with the clutch? Just wondering because fluids will get dirty with use. Do you also flush your power steering fluid or brake fluid at the first sign of discoloration?

It does feel slightly spongy

The bleeder screw is on top of the slave cylinder on the passenger side of the transmission. It is not a bleeder screw like what you would see on a caliper, but just a 5mm (I think thats the size) hex head screw. I bleed it just like the brakes with another person in the cab pushing in the clutch. Just takes standard DOT 3 brake fluid. Make sure to put a drain pan under where you are bleeding and to wear eye/gloves because it makes a mess. Clutch felt a lot better after this procedure.
