tbrand Posted November 26, 2010 Share Posted November 26, 2010 4 cylinder and 5 speed - sounds like an AX5 to me. I don't know if it's anything similar to my BA 10/5, but there is a hydraulic line with a bleeder fitting on the driver side of the transmission. It's just like bleeding brakes. With the slave inside, you might have to bleed a few times to get all the air out. However, if you were just driving along and found your CMC was dry, that suggests a leak. Bleeding won't solve that problem. You'll want to fill the MC and see if you can find fluid leaking anywhere down the line. An assistant would be helpful - they can pump the clutch while you check for the leak. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeff Posted November 29, 2010 Author Share Posted November 29, 2010 i couldnt find the fitting but was able to bleed it straight from the line and got a little bit of clutch. i also couldnt see any leaks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
