I heard it was somewhere near the transmission housing, so when I put in the Monsterflow, I had a look. Can`t see it. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

I was looking for the clutch bleeder too when I last changed my oil.

Finally found it nearly at the top of the tranny casing, just below the battery tray. It is not super-accessible from below.

If this isn't it, someone please disabuse me of the notion.


It's more fun to drive a slow car fast than it is to drive a fast car slow.

Yes you have the correct bleeder,rembember it shares the brake master cyl for fluid.

OK, so I haven't found it yet. I will need specific directions to find the bloody thing. I'm guessing it does not look exactly like a caliper bleeder...

It actually does look just like one, but it has a rubber cap over it. On top of the tranny, towards the front of the car.

The bleeder is just below the battery on the transmission housing like others have mentioned. It is easier to get at it if you remove the battery otherwise you need to be a contortionist!

Every time I bleed the brakes I bleed the clutch too as it shares the fluid!
