Default Clutch master cylinder diy???

I have to do this today. I've been limping the car for the past few days. A local shop has the part for me. I've been searching the forum and Google for 2 days now and I haven't found detailed instructions on how to change the master cylinder or how to bleed the clutch system once finished. Can anyone direct me to some good instructions or give me some tips please! Thanks guys!!!

Default LOL,

I think I read that before I went to bed or something because I swear this is the first time I've read it lol. Thanks! When I disconnect the master will alot of fluid leak out? Do I need to drain the brake fluid reservoir or anything? How do I do this if so? Thanks.

If the fluid level is above the master cylinder feed then yes, some will leak out. You can use something to syphon the fluid from the reservoir, but you do not want it bone dry up there. When you undo the larger line on the reservoir just have something to catch the fluid.
You can doo eeeet

There are better forums for that:

https://www.audiworld.com/forums/audi-a4-158/

This forum is for the B2 platform, which is way too old to be of any use as far as crossover information.
