V8v clutch fluid

Are we supposed to change the clutch fluid? I have a 13 manual 6 speed, but never changed the clutch fluid yet. I’m not sure if when you change the brake fluid, it’s the same reservoir as the clutch fluid so do it all at once?

If so, what fluid do you all recommend and how much do I need to buy?

I was looking at the Motul dot 5.1 which is about $12 per bottle and the Motul dot 4 rbf600 which is a little more at $16 per bottle. The rbf600 has higher boiling points. Dot 4 rbf600 > Dot 5.1 Some owners told me if I do not track my car and use it for everyday spirited driving, then I won’t be able to tell the difference. True? I plan to change every 2-3 years.

So both types of fluids should last equally as long? Is there one that is less prone to absorbing water?

When you “flush the clutch line”, is that to change the fluid for both the clutch fluid and the clutch pedal?
