the squeaking went away after 5-10min though. i think the csc may have
heated up or something. not sure wat the squeaking was from.
I didn't use the ranger Method. Don't even know what it is. I used a master vac with tank to suck the fluid out of the reservoir. I then filled it back up with Dot 4 fluid. Go under the car and used the master vac again. loosened CSC bleed screw, installed the vaccum pump and tank. Vaccumed some fluid out, filled reservior again, Vacced more, etc. until the fluid coming out at the CSC was clean. I never touched the clutch pedal. I got all of the fluid out and then some. My clutch does feel so much better.

the ranger method is a quick job you can do at the pump or track without using tools other than a turkey baster and your left foot.

Fucking ran over a piece of trash (no way to avoid it) that ripped the shitty plastic undershroud. I exited immediately, and it fell away as I slowed down to turn off the frontage road. The biker behind me should probably be glad I caught it

Excuse for a new ZSpeed black undershroud? I think so

wow, sorry to hear, mr.jar.

but sounds like a very valid reason to get the metal shroud.
