You CAN use the same fluid for both.Yes, they use the same stuff.The clutch fluid is recommended to be changed whenever it is black/dirty or the clutch is feeling a bit spongy.It's an absolute PITA to drain and bleed it without a remote bleed line, though, so most people just leave it until absolutely necessary. 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/90141-t6060-clutch-fuild-change/page/3/#findComment-1534015 Share on other sites More sharing options...
