bleed brakes
Hello forum members,
I put all around the car new brake discs and brake pads and bleeded them. Now, my question is, should I bleed the pump of the clutch ?

Simple answer is yes. The clutch shares the same reservoir as the brakes, so if the fluid in the brake system has been changed the clutch needs doing as well. You will then have clean fluid throughout.

Check if the bleed valves are rusted or not, when I tried to bleed my brakes I only did 3 of 4, since one of them had rusted so bad, cba to fix it too
