Well I have a 2002 a4 5spd and I'm going to change out the slave and master cylinder.

I searched but I didn't find anything useful on how to properly bleed the clutch. Also, does it have to be pressure bleed?

 

Its not really possible to bleed the clutch without the special pressure bleeder. Bleeding the brakes isn't too hard to do using the pump the pedal method, but the slave cylinder on audi's are probably the hardest to bleed in the world. I dare say harder than SAAB!

Basically just have the dealer do it for $200, oryou would have to push the pedal maybe 400 times and get under the car 100 times to get it right without the pressure bleeder.

when i did a clutch in my B6 a year ago. needed that pressure bleeder. local euro shop charged me 75 to use it in his shop and i signed some waiver saying i wouldnt sue him if my car fell off his lift and killed me.

super easy to use ... but needed

 

Yeah I was afraid of that. I will make a custom pressure bleeder on the brake reservoir and hopefully it should work.

 

Well it only took me about 20min to replace the slave cylinder, I don't know why people say it's such a pain. Now I have to bleed the system.[:@]

 

i think you aswered your own question. its a real hassle. bleeding. not the actual change

 

I'd never bleed brakes without doing clutch, personally, because they share fluid from the same master cylinder. Don't want to contaminate and all.
With a Motive or similar power bleeder, it is and easy job. Make sure to bleed at least 100cc from the clutch nipple. And have a much longer bleed hose because the nipple sits up higher than what the caliper nipples do. Also, I don't remember exact spec, but you really have to bump up the PSI on the power bleeder.
But really, other than getting up in there to the nipple and remembering to use a longer hose, it's no different then bleeding calipers; you just have to bleed more fluid and have higher PSI on the bleeder.
