    How to Bleed a Vr6 clutch

    Hey guys

    Need urgent help
    after trying to take a tiny bit of slack out of the clutch pedal... i ended up making it 5 times worse.... (thought it used the same system as bleeding brakes) but i did what i thought and now the pedal sticks almost to the floor an needs to be pulled out.

    PLEASE- could someone tell me step by step how to bleed the cluch-master/slave cylinder.

    cheers

    Clutches are bled way different to brakes mate. If you want to do it manual u will need 2 people to make it easy, you need to push it and bring it back up manually, making sure the pipe on the nipple is submerged in fluid other wise every up stroke is sucking in a belly full of air, better still after the downstroke shut the nipple and pull the pedal up. Mate do yourself a favour and pressure bleed it , you wont have to touch the pedal at all. Find someone with a pressure bleeder for the win, otherwise its very doable but there is a knack.
