The clutch circuit has to be drained separately. If the mechanic said he changed your brake fluid, I seriously doubt he changed the brake fluid in the clutch system. -----Original Message----- From: Vanagon Mailing List [mailto:vanagon@gerry.vanagon.com] On Behalf Of Dave Mcneely Sent: Tuesday, February 02, 2010 11:58 AM To: vanagon@GERRY.VANAGON.COM Subject: Re: No Clutch.... Thanks. So, I changed the brake fluid in May. I'm assuming from what you say that the clutch hydraulic system needs separately changed. Is that correct? Nothing in the owner's manual about that, unless I remember incorrectly. I'll check it. But regardless of what it says, it sounds like you are saying to change the clutch fluid in addition to the brake fluid. Or did my mechanic do that as a part of changing the brake fluid? Thanks again, David Mc |
