I'm soon to get the UUC braided clutch line fitted. Any other tasks I should get done at the same time? Fitter asked which fluid to use... any recommendations?

It would make sense to get the slave cylinder done at the same time as it has to come out anyway.

Regretting not doing mine when I done the hose!

here we go, open a can a worms time........

I can understand the logic of having braided Brake Hoses (so i've got them) - but clutch?

 

Cats know your every thought.

But don't care.

Pittsy,

It's a known problem on e36 M3s. The rubber clutch hose can obviously lead to ballooning which then means that the biting point is often only just off the carpet.

The braided hose can help to cure this.

HTH.
