Where do you check Clutch fluid on my Golf GTI?

No the clutch fluid being referred to is the hydraulic fluid used to actuate the clutch mechanism, this fluid is shared with the brake fluid Mike :happy2:

Makes perfect sense, having a mong morning  :ashamed:  Wheere abouts on the gearbox could this fluid potentially leak from?

Thanks again

Clutch master cylinder is a possibility

gazbutS3:
there is a connector at the gearbox where the pressure line joins the actuator/slave cylinder, I had a slight leak here that only became apparant on track days etc when the fluid got hotter, we changed the O ring and now its fine, saying that I haven't done a track day since  :laugh:

Tfsi_Mike:

If my brake fluid is low will certainly be investigating said places.  If not could be driveshaft oil seals again  :sad1:
