It is a good idea to bleed your clutch if you notice that the pedal is getting softer or if it is taking longer for the car to engage into gear. You will need someone to help you with this process as it can be difficult to do alone.
1. Start by finding the bleeder valve on the slave cylinder. This is usually located near the firewall on the driver’s side.
2. Have your helper pump the clutch pedal while you crack open the bleeder valve slightly until you see fluid coming out. Make sure to keep an eye on the level of fluid in the reservoir so that it does not get too low and cause air to enter the system.
3. Once fluid starts coming out, have your helper hold down the pedal and close the valve tightly before letting go of the pedal slowly.
4. Repeat this process until all of the old fluid has been flushed from the system and new clean fluid comes out without any air bubbles present.
