FLUSH IT OUT. Have you been flushing your brake fluid regularly. That is what usually happens when you don't flush it out.

Yes, the clutch slave cylinder has a bleeder screw on it and you treat it just like the brakes as far as bleeding. To me it looks like moisture(water) is getting into the system, check you resevoiur caps.....

They also make a do-it-yourself bleeder tool that you can connect to the bleeder screw on each caliper which pushes air bubbles and fluid up through the line into the reservoir. Something that is handy if trying to do this on your own. You could basically remove all the fluid, loosen up your bleeder screws and flush the system out yourself, tighten the screws, put new fluid in and then go one caliper at a time to bleed the air out of the system. Rather then having to pay the dealership to do it. I am sure we could all help you online do it yourself, but if you don't feel comfortable, then you should take it somewhere for someone who does.

Sounds like a good idea. I need to do the exact same thing myself. I'm probably doing it this weekend when we install Keith's exhaust.

that's if you don't use it right/get the cheap ones. vacuum bleeders are the shit.
