Clutch Resevoir..am I stupid

Where on earth is the clutch fluid resevoir?

Looked in Haynes manual...where it showed me there is nothing!!!!

Is there a difference between manual and auto? I have 2.2 Diesel auto.... Google shows zip.... Maybe I need to calm down before I search.... Argggghhh

Help greatly appreciated Smile

Most manual cars nowdays share the brake reservoir with the clutch. If so, just the one reservoir. Thumbs Up

Normally, the reservoir has a pipe approximately halfway up leading off of it that feeds the clutch master cylinder. If the fluid level for the clutch was that low as to affect the clutch, I'm sure the low brake fluid warning light would be on.

Yeah thanks Steve, I seen that now.

I think the problem is more major. Clutch operation (pedal) is as normal...but gear change is not. When engine is off can move the gears freely.

When I start up have to 'force' into gear....when I cant get it in gear I have to switch off and put in gear, start up and drive..( just doing this outside the house) When I do that, the car starts to drive even when the clutch is down.... Sad

But sometimes it seems ok and then not...it's definitely not....clutch must be knackered...my solution haha...
