    Any reason to bleed the clutch?

    I just replaced the brakes on my wife's G35 and was going to at least do a brake fluid flush or new pads when I swap for winter wheels, in a few months, and it got me thinking.

    Does anyone flush their Slave cylinder? Where is it on the Audi, never looked for it.

    I use a motive Power Bleeder so it's super easy.

    Re: Any reason to bleed the clutch?

    I haven't looked into the B7's maintenance schedule for that yet (owned it for ~1 month now), but in every car I owned whenever I bled the brakes for a fluid change, I also did the clutch at the same interval if the car had a manual trans. I do the same for my motorcycles every 2 years regardless of mileage. Do you like the Power Bleeder you're using?

    I use the motive power bleeder.
    Right now I just have the universal adapter that I used on my old Jeep and the wife Infiniti.
    I will buy the adapter for the Audi before I go to do the brake this winter.

    It's excellent. One person, a few minutes per wheel, and voila. Clear resevoir and fluid from each wheel with no air, and only 1 person.

    Completely worth the $35 it cost me 4 year ago.
