Good video,, clear steps. Best part, no music.
Agree. Music background is irritating.
Yep
Definitely going to keep watching your videos. You explain everything extremely well for us folks who struggle with words.
You are the boss,best informative video,thanks so much for taking your time and going all out,not rushing through,showing us step by step,these are the type of videos worth paying for
I truly appreciate this information, very helpful, thank you.
Good job kid, great to see a girl having a go and doing a good job too. Nice clear and to the point. Well done girl..
Really helpful thanks for the effort you put in to this
Procedure worked for us. Thanks for the demonstration. I feel bad that you've had to put up with some of the off-topic comments. Keep up the good work!
Nice job..kid..good inspiration for our new generation...b safe...keep up these info videos...best..
I am impressed at how you pour your brake fluid. I don't have the balls to free pour like that. I use a funnel. If I didn't, I'd have fluid all over the place. The same goes for engine oil.
Brake fluid is corrosive stuff, especially when it gets on the paint job. Clean it up ASAP when you spill it or happen to get brake fluid on your car paint.
Very well explained... & to the point!
Excellent video! Thank you so so much!
Great video very well explained
High quality video nice to see a lady doing mechanics for once even though going under is tricky without a ramp i know i have to do it day in day out. Keep it up :)
Chocolate and coffee for sure thanks. Done this before a few years back. Nice reminder thanks.
Thank's to this video i have been able to fix my problem with engaging clutch at just half inch of letting go the clutch pedal.
Thank You.
Great video, very helpful. How much fluid did it take to completely change it? Apologies if you mentioned it in the video, I’m full of the flu and may well have missed it! Thanks
Is very good job professional,Thanks
very informative thanks for ur video
Great Video thank you
Ally, thanks for the video....I think I'm due for this.
Wow. Thank u 4 your tips! Go girl power!😁I have a 2011 Chevy Aveo. Shop wants over $100 to do this...😵Hope this & more research helps.
Me encantan tus videos! Saludos.
Does anyone else get super inspired to work on their car after they watch Ally's video and think that it's easy or that it's doable? Then when you actually prepare to do it, you're just like fuck this lol.
Thank you!
Great video
Thanks, Actually thought so. God Bless Always.😇😁😛💪
This was very helpful, thanks. I'm in the process of replacing my clutch fluid and my clutch pedal did not come back up so I thought I broke something.
ya first impression just pull pedal up pump and bleed air out sounds like you got it fixed
is it true when you replace a clutch doing this process is recommended before or after?
thank you
Smart way to release the knuckle!
My 2013 mazdaspeed 3 is having trouble getting into gear sometimes. First gear. No grinds or anything
On a lot of vehicles that have a filter under the cap, most of them come out, the one that my Toyota has unscrews out of the reservoir
Holy crap , a young woman who knows to service her car ? very impressed !
And her car is a mazda , I love that brand ( very reliable )
Trung Do and rusty too
Big facts
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!
Precisely expressed very easy to understand it would be a shame to watch this and fail to fix your saggy clutch by your self, believe you I just fix mine while watching the whole process thank you👍
Far out! Thank you!
Well done Ally.
Nice video
Thanks for the tutorial.. My clutch oil just went dry.. I hope nothing bad happen.. I drove it to the nearest worksyop to change new slave pump coz it's leaking..
how come your car looks brand new?? Btw you are supposed to pump the clutch with your hand till the pedal films up, then hold pedal in and release the valve. It should take no more than 6-7 cycles to get the job done.
yes she said pump the clutch pedal to get air out of line open close valve after each pump my fluid is old that my clutch is dragging when cars jacked up the tire spins in neutral clutch old fluid is my guess
clutch doesn't work the same like a brake right? pumping the clutch will just lead to more air in the system?
If you ever want to solo it. You can also use a wedge such as a stick on the clutch. Then lessen the bleed valve to let air or fluid out. then tighten. Sometimes air can get trapped in the slave cylinder. To defeat this you can remove the slave cylinder, and push the cylinder in with the the bleed valve opened, also angle the bleed valve up, so it easier for air to travel.
You can pull suction on the bleed valve with syringe, and vacuum pump if you still have issues.
Finally. Air can also get trapped in the hose to the master cylinder, while in theory they should self correct. You can also pull a vaccum in the master reservoir to bring air bubbles to the top.
If you consistently see air while bleeding the slave. You have a leak. If you consistently see air coming out the master reservoir. You have a leak.
If you replace the master cylinder. It is generally best practice to also replace the slave cylinder.
Great explanation video i recoment pumping it like 3 times before holding it down that way u build up some pressure behind it and get that old fluid out of there more efficiently
Is this required for mazda 6 2006 GY ? I did bleed the brakes.
do you or anyone else know what the green blinking thing is under the dash? i bought my speed3 used and it has one just like that. no clue what it is.
Thumb it up! Yes Ma'am.
👍good video I like it
Ok I have to say this because it is a growing trend with female car enthusiast thank you for making this video about the car and project instruction not about what yoga pants you got on or how far out one can stick out there butt while changing a tire. With that off my chest, great video and clear instruction keep it up!
You spelled "their" wrong... I'm attributing this to the probability that your had your mind focused on something other than spelling when you were in school.
EXCELENTE
Can you use DOT3&4 from Motul for this? I'm about to bleed my brakes and install braided brake lines. Can I bleed the clutch while I'm at it?
use vehicle specific fluid for they are different chemicle mix
So changing the brake fluid from the master cylinder will be all the same fluid going to the brakes and the clutch? If so, shouldn't we just bleed the brakes as well for each Tire? This way all the fluid is out of the entire system?
Clutch and brakes are completely separate, closed systems. They just both use DOT3 or DOT4 fluid, commonly called brake fluid.
How did you drain the tank with the filter in the way
That Mazdaspeed3 has a regular halogen lamps, how is that? I thought that all of them had directional bi-xenon.
tech package has xenons
so my clutch is really weak to push for about 2 inches then after that it seems to be alright. but reverse gear however i cant seem to creep slowly with it, it either is going or not
Thank you very much! I will try... with all respect you are very beautiful!
So yesterday I completely lost clutch…didn’t smell anything smoking..didn’t stay to the floor it came back up just felt like nothing was there..stomped the clutch a couple times and it came back…bad fluid?
Was one bottle of brake fluid enough to do the job?
What is that blinking thing with the green button above the pedals at 0:37?
rocket launcher
How big is the hose used in the video
Got a new clutch put in my 2002 a4 and it feels Soft just falls right to the floor no force. i no like. i PRAY its just the fluid and not something else
Mines the same in the car I just bought. Soft and to the floor and the fluid is dirty
Like you I hope it’s just fluid
Hi, some one knows, what’s that item with the blinking green light?, I have the same in my car but have no idea what it is. sorry for stpd… cuestion!
What interior diameter of hose are you using?
Is the clutch fluid the same power fluid. Cuz I flushed power steering fluid recently.
No power steering fluid is usually transmission fluid. Clutch fluid is brake fluid.
Doing brake fluid = doing clutch fluid on Mazdaspeed 3s. The hydraulic systems are shared.
Thank you!!!
I've never seen a Mazda with all the bolts intact on the underbelly tray 😦.. I think I'm down to 3 and zip ties lol
My dad gave me his 96 Nissan pickup and the fluid hasn't been changed since 2008 when he installed a new clutch. Imma do this tomorrow.
bravoo
How would you differentiate between worn out fluid and the clutch itself?
google
goood god! :) well done
You can leave the bladder in the reservoir when you do that ?😢
Can bad clutch fluid cause an engine to stall out upon release of clutch pedal?
yes it could if that's the problem
The clutch pedal on my speed6 did that while I was driving it, then it gradually let itself back out to the normal position after a few seconds. There was plenty of brake fluid in it, but I was driving the car hard at the time, def had something to do with it.
Did this fix it I had this happen recently
Creates vacuum in the line by leaving the clutch in when closing the bleeder
If i'm on second gear and slowing down to 3 - 6 mpg should it be smooth to go back into 1st gear? There are various times when my car doesn't want to go to first gear at that speed unless I force it. Does this mean I need to replace my Clutch fluid? Most of the shifting works fine, except down shifting from 5th to 4th. I get a grind every time..
Christian Sanchez its usually harder because there are no syncros in first i think
So, I’m confused. If you couldn’t drain the fluid via fill because of the filter, how did you remove the fluid? Drain through the bleeder valve?
its just a faster way to pull fluid
A cool trick to easily turn this into a one person job is to buy any cheap set of adjustable hiking poles. You can adjust them to any length to hold the brake or clutch pedal down while you crack the bleeder. Use one pole and adjust it to length and rest it up against the front on the seat..Ohh and you can use them on a nice hike in the woods after.
Haha, that's a cool advice! However, when it comes to bleeding the brake system, it's enough when the hose is immsersed in brake fluid (in a container). You open the valve and then keep pumping the brake pedal. The air won't get into the system when the hose is immersed in brake fluid.
Thanks for that info. Don't know where I can get myself a hiking pole, but I'll try make my own 😉👍
Or buy an easy blead kit
Sweet!! Good job explaining everything, I'm gonna subscribe, just because you have a sparkling attitude and a pretty smile, oh and because you explain everything clearly :)
So description says wrench but not the size of the wrench?
*turns up with chocolate and coffee 😁
I still get amazed how clean you stay...probably wash up in between shots though
Lol I think she's naturally clean,check how clean the car is ,being clean is in her nature I guess
Thats my girl
When is that you need to open the valve as you pressing the pedal I don't understand that part
Milton Hernández open the valve, press the clutch, close the valve, depress the clutch and so on
I use a brake bleeder cause e36 uses brake master cyl for the clutch fluid... ez pz.
Wrong order. Press the clutch, open the valve, let it drain for a few seconds then close the valve. If you open the valve before the clutch is pressed you will let air in the system.
Your very very pretty😍😍😍
How much fluid does she need? 1, 2 liters?
Have you confirmed it? I only have 1L of fluid, not sure if I need to buy more.
Ugh I got to do my Ford Ranger tomorrow lol 🔧
Also worth considering is the
Motul DOT 5.1 Brake Fluid
Wet boiling point (185°C) is superior to DOT 4 (155°C mini) and DOT 3 (140°C mini).
So DOT 5.1 will have a longer life.
no dot 5.1 absorbs moisture much faster and will degrade much faster. must be changed every year.
@@breakupgoogle No! check the specs
not necessary! overkill for daily driven
Great video. Well spoken and understandable. Easy walk through guide. Bonus, very attractive host.
You can do what I did one time and run the master cylinder out of brake fluid purging old nasty fluid from the lines (not recommended). I change the brake fluid every 2-3 years and never have a leaking master cylinder. No need to buy that racing brake fluid unless its a track car.
sounds like you got it right
my ka has a plastic valve you open and close for bleeding the clutch you use your finger tips to open close clutch fluid should be changed every 2 or 3 yrs if your that diligent thanks for video wares your helper miss did nt see him ?
Can you do this if you are only 1 person?
IM26C4U - Yes, use a vacuum kit or pneumatic kit.
IM26C4U Ally was actually wrong when she said you needed a helper to bleed the brakes/clutch. When you use a hose and bottle with new fluid in it, the helper is unnecessary. Just open the bleeder valve and pump the pedal to pump old fluid out. Once all that's in the hose is new fluid, pull the pedal all the way up and close the bleeder.
This is called gravity bleeding and I personally do not trust it. I would rather be sure no air was introduced into the system and have a friend push on the clutch while I control the bleed.
Yes, the easiest method is to use a stick wedged between the pedal and the seat base; that keeps the pedal down and prevents air from getting in. Always retighten the bleeder valve before removing the stick.
kind like getting a date with girly magazine it can be done
I have chocolate and Caffè for U... gj:)
👍🥰
Rarely see any girl do diy on their car, thumbs up!
You need to wear some safety glasses when you get under the car!
Todd Taylor Oh yeah, and maybe also helmet??
Nah, she wouldn't look so sexy then... Who cares about clutch fluid or dirt getting into your eyes. The most important thing is that your pretty eye make-up is visible!
no need... her car is super clean
Definetly. Its a basic safety precaution. If something were to happen, which I hope doesn't, it would feel awful. Eyes are sensitive and important :)
female garage At first I was like what?? Then I noticied you were making a point. C:
Old clutch/brake fluid won't change pedal feel, it will just become acidic and eat away at the seals in the master and slave cylinders and any rubber lines. By the time you feel a change, you've already caused damage to the hardware in the car.
Brake/clutch fluid is hygroscopic. Water, which is what clutch/brake fluid absorbs over time, in incompressible, just like the brake/clutch fluid itself. But when water mixes into brake/clutch fluid. it becomes acidic.
If there is air in the fluid then it will effect the feel
My Jeep's clutch uses DOT3 brake fluid. Some vehicles use hydraulic fluid.
lol
I need to change the fluid in my Subaru because it looks gross, I've had the car since 24K miles and it's now at 116K and I've never changed it.
The first person to actually say the clutch uses the same reservoir as the brake system.
only on the internet will you find a woman this fire getting her hands dirty... god damn where do I find one
1:00 Nahh just grind it till you find it!
30 cycles is excessive. 3 or 4 is plenty. ;-)
