    Hello, thanks for the video. I have Fiat Bravo 2 1.6 multijet 105hp. From 1-2 weeks I have an issue with the clutch - when I am going on first and reverse gear the car is vibrating and annoying rasping sound is heard on the front of the car. Sometimes I am not even able to shift the gears and when I turn off the car and pump the clutch and then the car start shifting and driving off without vibrations. Could it be a problem with the clutch release bearing? Or because of old brake fluid and air in the system? Thanks in advance!

    I got a chevy cobalt just had whole entire clutch system done from flywheel all the way up to the brake master cylinder and after i was back bleeding it like this from the bleeder screw on the outside line i got pressure back on the pedal itself but a hour later clutch pedal goes dead again..iv vacuum blead it from bmc still happens. Its not leaking fluid and its not taking air in anywhere..I didnt install the clutch just how i received the car. I was told by owner oh it just needs to be back blead theres a air bubble in there..could this be why it keeps loosing pressure? Cause it probably wasnt bleed from the slave..? Thanks

    okay update and added safety tip. I have a 92 f150 with 302 and M5OD it has a very similar setup with the slave it has a bleeder but some slave you buy aren't pre bled "dry". what I've done was install everything but before stabbing the transmission you can push the slave back pushing the cylinder all the way down pushing air up to the master. it called reverse bleed. But DO NOT start pushing the pedal down you will blow the slave cylinder apart and eat some brake fluid but you can atleast get the air out of the cylinder. The throw out bearing needs pressure on it from the fingers on the clutch to prevent it blowing apart. Hopefully this clears it up for them M5OD guys searching to help bleed the slave. Another comment I seen was can you do it with the transmission installed the answer is yes a pry bar on the bearing works but be careful understand with the pry bar you're apply a completely different force on one section of that bearing if you have a fork you can get away with this method. 😉

I tried what you said with a pray bar pushing the slave cylinder back kind of pumping it. Whole doing that I took a video of the fluid reservoir up top and nothing was happening. Any thoughts?

    Glad I'm researching this, VW is like this too on MKVI now...what a pain.
    There is no real way I can think of once the transmission is put back together. I'd imagine if it is you'd probably disconnect the hard line at bleeder valve for clutch and put a hose that fits around it connected to a bottle of hydraulic fluid then .... nope, you can't. Then you can't press it down without the clutch master connected. With the clutch master connected maybe you could from there , if not you'd just keep trying to compress air bubbles.
    Thanks for this, doing it connected to a long hose full of fluid to make life easier since I don't have a lift and want to deal with the short length of mine

      @@DavidMartinez-kp4wp I ended up bench bleeding it as best as I could. The thing is, once it's put on the cylinder compresses and pushes out whatever was in it already soooo, if you had the line connected right away with it primed it would pull it all from master and be fine. If it was a dry pull from master hose then.... Uhhh. I read lots of bleeding and then some after you think it's fine. Sorry :(
      I added a hose to my master as I pushed it back on that I filled with the brake fluid and watched it push/pull it all back in
      Mine has issues of getting stuck in first gear now and having to turn it off.... I blame Spec and the spacer being off by thousandths :(

    I have an ls1 t56 and the slave cylinder cannot be compressed by hand unless I open the bleed screw. Even with a clamp it won't compress. Maybe the fingers won't be able to compress it either is my concern. Have you run into this?

      I haven’t, but honestly I don’t try to hand compress them a lot, for fear of tearing the internal o ring.

      @@thoroughbreddiesel Thanks for the response! I found the reason though I don't fully understand it. I had my tilton master cylinder partially compressed to limit throw by use of a threaded eye attachment. Once i adjusted it to allow it to fully reset, the slave was able to move by hand. The master must block backwards fluid when partially engaged.
