Default Where's the Clutch Fluid Reservoir?

I'm a Honda guy and it is very weird that i don't see the Cutch Fluid Reservoir.
How do you guys change the clutch fluid? or bleed?

Also, I notice in the maintenance manual that there is no information as to
flushing out the brake fluid nor clutch fluid. (which it should be.. every 15k-30k)

I'm not 100% sure, but it might use the brake fluid reservoir for the clutch also. Not sure how many companies do that, but my old car was that way.

Yeah they both use brake fluid, so one reservoir, two different cylinders (one for clutch, one for brakes). I did a quick search and the tC only has one. Even found a good story where a Toyota tech told a tC owner they had two separate reservoir's, and then couldn't find the clutch one under the hood when he tried to show them, because it wasn't there. So I'm assuming ours are the same. But if I'm wrong, don't worry, someone will let us know.

As for bleeding them, it's probably a good idea to do them both at the same time. Otherwise you might end up chasing a problem back and forth trying to eliminate air bubbles.

And once again, this is the only place to find "any" information, concerning the Scion.
I'm in the same boat, looking to bleed the hyd. clutch on my daughters 2014 Scion tC.

Thanks for keeping this thread visible.
