Does anyone have any idea as to how much fluid it takes to flush and change the brake and clutch fluid? The manual gives quantities for everything else, but not these.

I am going to be doing a complete change of fluids so it would be really helpfull if I can buy enough to do it all at one go.

Not much, but you can get 2 litre tubs of 5.1 from Halfords. That should be enough to flush all the old out. Depends how good you are at bleeding brakes. wink

Not sure but when I did my clutch I ran 2 litres of 5.1 through to ensure I'd flushed it completely. Probably overkill...
