Hello to all.

I was hoping someone could shed some light on something that I noticed today. Im running the standard clutch with 300RWKW's. Today whilst driving the clutch pedal went light, but was still working fine, and there is no slip. I will do a fluid flush tommorrow and see what happens. But I was wondering if anyone had experienced this before, or had any ideas. Thanks

It's not as easy as you might think to bleed the clutch unless you have a bleeder hose fitted.

That solid line goes straight into the bell housing onto the csc.. carnt of a job without the bleeder line you can get from Mal wood. In saying that just to fit it you need to pull the box back.

You'll kill that clutch pretty quick with 300+rwkw. Strongly suggest you start saving for a option 3+ clutch kit. Should also come with lightened flywheel and bleeder line. Your clutch might not necessarily be rooted just yet but it will be real soon. So phuckin annoying when they start slipping

Yeah that's what I'm thinking. Noticed this morning when I was pushing the clutch pedal by hand it sounded like air was pushing out every time I depressed it. Where would the air be getting into it? Thanks

Could be the clutch master cylinder, I would say that is the only thing you could hear leaking air from inside the footwell. The Master cylinder is a small plastic tube bolted on to the pedal box directly above the clutch pedal. It has a metal rod that links to the pedal itself. Check the firewall behind the pedals for any sign of fluid too, it generally lands on the wall and runs down behind the carpet.
