Default Squeeky Clutch

Brought it to dealer and complained. They said they would fix it.. I got it back and it was still squeeking. Any suggestions? I STFA and didn't come up w/ anything conclusive.

Default no, i am as well, there is abolutely NOTHING wrong with this fluid, people had bad luck and its a

big fluke. ATE is a quality brand that works in our cars, if your master is gonna go out, its gonna go out with every brand, just happens ate was in a lot of early cars when it went out. I love my ate

Default ****, ATE has been running in Porsches and Audi's in Europe for years.

IT is a proven brand and all the hype that it blows masters is just bs imo

Default i dont know how that is related to ATE, i know you were using the fluid, but maybe it would have

happened with any fluid? Fluke or fluids fault?

Default honestly, i have no clue. moss and jose both bled the system repeatedly themselves...

... so we know it wasn't a faulty bleed.

moss replaced the master once, and jose replaced the master AND the slave. still squeak.

flushed out the ATE, put in the motul, bang. squeak gone.

thats all i know
