did a search but i didnt find a definitive thread on how to and what to do.

 

any info would be great.

 

i want to bleed the clutch fluid as i think there may be an airlock in there. also i want to change the gearbox oil as i have noticed my gearstick gets quite warm after a good drive. its a big ass metal one.

 

i have been told that , when it gets warm or hot its a good sign that the oil is at the end of its life and is a good idea to replace it.

 

also my gearbox is quite clunky, very no grinding or noize but just very mechanical in the way it feels. prehaps its just me as usual!!.

 

but it the clutch and gearbox something i can do comfortably?

 

thanks as always guys

IIRC, there are 2 bleed points for the clutch. One is on the drivers side of the engine bay, near the supsension point and the other is on the slave, under the car.
