Hydraulic Clutch
It is not necessary to regularly check clutch fluid unless
you suspect there is a leak in the system. Adding
fluid will not correct a leak. A fluid loss in this system
could indicate a problem. Have the system inspected
and repaired.
When to Check and What to Use
The hydraulic clutch fluid
reservoir cap has this
symbol on it. See Engine
Compartment Overview
on page 5-14 for reservoir
location.
Refer to the Maintenance Schedule for the proper
fluid to use. See Recommended Fluids and Lubricants
on page 6-14. The fluid requires changing every
two years. See Additional Required Services on
page 6-6.
How to Check and Add Fluid
Visually check the clutch fluid reservoir to make sure
the fluid level is at the MIN (Minimum) line on the side
of the reservoir. The hydraulic clutch fluid system should
be kept closed and sealed. Do not remove the cap to
check the fluid level or to top-off the fluid level. Remove
the cap only when necessary to add the proper fluid
until the level reaches the MIN line.
