Hi

There looks.to be a slave cylinder takeoff.on the bottom.of the bellowing, has anyone bled a clutch on a db9 or has a workshop manual to describe the right way?

Thanks

John

There's a bleed point next to the front of the torque tube. If I remember correctly off the top of my head, you'll need a 9mm box-end wrench and 14mm box-end wrench. Use the two wrenches to open the bleed nipple (hold the 14mm in place and loosen with the 9mm). If you have a pressure bleeder, it'll bleed on its own - just let it bleed for a few seconds until you see new fluid come out. If you don't have that, you'll need someone to pump the clutch pedal. It's the same process as bleeding the brakes.

Here's a video, might help:

The link should start you at the right spot in the video for just the clutch line.

Thanks for that night slightly different on the DB9 to hear vantage but essentially tally the same

Bleeding the kath has broadly made it lighter odly.

Thanks
