How to bleed the clutch of an Audi A3

Model: Audi A3 8V, MK 3 - Years 2012-2019
Part: Clutch

In this video we see how to bleed the clutch of an Audi A3, after some components have been changed. We will need an assistant, who will press the brake pedal at the right moment. We put some paper around the bleeder, and make sure there is enough brake fluid in the reservoir, then we turn the bleeder valve counterclockwise, from which air bubbles mixed with oil will come out. It is exactly the air bubbles that need to come out of the system; we must continue until only liquid comes out. At this point we will turn the valve clockwise to close it. In the meantime, we must feel the sensations on the clutch pedal, that it is responsive and does not remain completely depressed; the pedal must be depressed gradually, so that the air can be released evenly. The operation must be repeated several times.

To bleed the clutch on a Renault Clio, open the bonnet to access the components located in the engine bay: here, you will need to undo the screws that secure the battery in its housing, the intake manifold, and the coolant reservoir. This will allow you to locate the pipe through which the brake fluid flows: by inserting the other end of the pipe into a container, you can press the clutch pedal to expel all the fluid until it fills the container.
