Clutch Bleeding

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
CAUTION: Use the specified brake fluid. Do not mix brake fluids.

Specified fluid: Brake fluid DOT 3 or DOT 4 

  1. Connect a hose with a bottle to the bleeder screw.
  2. Turn the nipple (the shaded area in Fig 1) counterclockwise to release it. (It can be turned only 180°)
  3. Depress the clutch pedal slowly. Open the bleeder screw to let air and brake fluid out. Close the bleeder screw. Release the clutch pedal. Repeat until only brake fluid and no air comes out.
  4. Check that the brake fluid reservoir level stays between "MAX" and "MIN" marks throughout the clutch bleeding process.
