Folks, I did a few searches first but could not find any relevant threads on the topic. Changed my clutch fluid about 8 weeks ago (it was a stained brown but not black and still somewhat transparent. I put in Motul 5.1 synthetic. About two weeks ago, I noticed (after a major weather change) my clutch pedal felt scratchy and the gears stuck a little until it warmed up. Now, some background, new marlin crawler clutch kit installed about 3-4 months ago and new flywheel. So changed the fluid again about 5 days ago and once again it still clear but slowly getting brown and opaque again. Any ideas? There were no clutch issue when I put the Motul 5.1 in the first time and it did shift better as with the second change but it looks like the use life is very short or it's getting contaminated very quickly. Original master and slave and about 130,000 miles on it. No loss of fluid from the reservoir.

Thanks.

Flush the master and slave and the lines.

If need be replace all the parts.

Your not getting all the stuff out so your new fluid starts to pick it up as your using the clutch .

Just like a cooling system that has rust brown coolant you just can`t drain it and refill.

Will do again, thanks.
