Z1 csc bleeding issue

Boujzee · 05-03-2022, 07:33 AM

I'm having an issue bleeding the clutch with the new z1 csc kit. I never fully drained it so there shouldn't be any air in the master. I've tried vacuum bleeding, 2 person clutch pump method, not sure what to do at this point. I've gone through 2 quarts of brake fluid already. Suggestions?

Thanks!

I haven't heard good things about the Z1 CSC kits, and that's coming from my shop as well. I would work with Z1 support.

I called them first thing this morning and all they said was keep trying to bleed it and usually we tell customers to buy a new master cylinder as well -.-

love wasting another 162$ for a new master.

Literally the last thing that needs to get done before I can have seb finish my tune <_< all the other mods are done! Who would have thought that pulling the motor and trans would less of a headache than bleeding a clutch

I'd sooner take the loss and get the Zspeed CMAK. Z1 makes some good stuff but that slave cylinder setup is not one of them.

Jarblue had nothing but hell with his.He went with the CMAK setup after all the trouble he had with the Z1 kit.

Well I have everything done besides getting it successfully bled, really don't want to scrap it since it was 500$for the kit. Everything else Z1 has been great so far
