Help Bleeding My Clutch!
Ok, I have been searching all day and I have a headache now coz I don't exactly know were the clutch reservoir. I'm trying to replace my Clutch Line and I get mix review about this being DYI and other's think it's a Pain in the A$$. I'm looking at the manual but it doesn't really give you a good Picture of were the hell is the Bleeder. I might go jack the car today and see what is under there but any Picture is appreciated. Also any special tool that I need?
I don't think there is a bleeder. You bleed it by removing the fluid in the clutch resevoir, and pump the clutch peddle ~20-30 times, and repeating 5-10 times to get the residual air out of the system. It helps to drive around a bit after the first 5 times or so to get the car moving around to dislodge any more air bubbles in the line

Ok, if there is no bleeder then how do I remove the fluid? Now I'm more confused. This a quote from trey.

It can be done with one person, but it's much easier if you can have an extra there to cycle the clutch pedal while some one else bleeds the line. And the clutch line is very thin. Due to that and it's location/orientation, it's very easy to get a tiny air bubble in the line when you're bleeding the system. It's not uncommon to have to bleed the system 3, 5, or even 10+ times to get all of the air out. Just be patient. If you don't get all of the air out, the pedal won't return all the way. Depending on how much air in the system, it may not be a big deal. I still have air in my system from over a year ago and have lived with it.
Actually, I guess there is a bleeder.

To just change the fluid, you need a syringe to remove the fluid from the master cylinder and then exchange it for new fluid. Hope that helps you out

I saw that post, hope it is the same for G35. I also looked at the manual but the picture is to small. I'm going to go and check the car this weekend and see were the hell is that bleeder valve.
All manual state to use the clear hose, is that part of it or do I need to buy then?
