Kizashi Club

Hello,

Could anyone tell me the location of the clutch reservoir on the Kizashi? Was thinking of changing my clutch fluid, as well as gearbox oil.

Thanks!

The brake fluid reservoir is also for the clutch. Brake fluid is used for the clutch hydraulics as well. Modern cars have just combined the two reservoirs into one since they use the same fluid. So to completely change it, you need to bleed the brake lines as well as the clutch line.

It's interesting to me how similar a clutch system and a brake system work. Brake pads and clutch plates are nearly made of the same material and both use the same non-compressing fluid to be operated by foot. The big difference is that pedal for the clutch disengages the clutch while the pedal for the brakes engages the brakes.

Anyhow, I'm curious: what gear oil are you going to use for the manual gear box?
