Can anyone tell me how to bleed the clutch on the cerb?.I find it very hard to get any gears on the car when its cold,once i do its ok but still a little stiff,but once warmed up the gears are fine changing up and down nicely with no resistance at all.I want to bleed the system and change the gear box oil.Any help would be appreciated.Many Thanks. Mark.

I think the bleed hose is routed up from the clutch to near the bulkhead on the drivers side.

yep thats the bleed nipple and you will need take take off the black cover located near there to get to the master cylinder.

I notice from your profile that you in london I,am in catford if you are near me I could come and give you a hand.

Hi Julian

New slave cylinder fitted and been to reims and last weekend.the one that was fitted 4500 miles ago was fitted wrong and had a rather large gorge in the piston. the new slave clyinder is the upgraded one which should last a bit longer. might pop up next saturday and use your lift the exhuast is grounding out after they have put the gearbox etc back in.it will be better if I adjust the exhuast to where I want it

Hi Mark
Blimey Rutland park, never saw a cerb there or did you buy after you moved.What is wrong with your clutch if are just up the road I can have a quick look know most of the problems that can happen to a cerb changed moast things twice on the except the gearbox touching wood.I have just had the slave cylinder changed again which I,am not to happy about.
