Hi all,

I cannot get my clutch to bleed on my 240D. I’ve bled the brakes, tried to reverse bleed with the RF caliper, tried vacuum from the clutch feed line with a bottle of brake fluid hooked to the slave nipple, and I’ve tried just leaving it for a week. Still nothing. Sometimes I can get a little resistance from the clutch pedal, sometimes none. Sometimes it will pull itself to the floor from halfway depressed. I’m at a loss here and my only thoughts left are that my master or slave cylinders are the issue. How can I diagnose the two? And I’ll welcome any other methods for bleeding. The only thing I haven’t tried is method #1 in the Haynes manual using a power bleeder.

Is it reasonable and possible to rebuild the cylinders for they’re faulty? I’d prefer to rebuild them than replace them.

Thanks, happy motoring
