Sorry for the newbie question. I trued using the forum search but it just sits there and never returns a result.

I've got the 6-speed Getrag. Just need to know what sort of fluid goes into the clutch master/slave. Also if filling or bleeding it isn't obvious, I'd appreciate some hints on that.

Almost on the road... :driving:

Pretty much any brake/clutch fluid you can lay your hands on will do.
Brakes are a different matter where boiling of fluid and moisture takeup are issue.
Bleeding should be simple.

DOT 4 fluid is fine for the clutch.
