empty fluid? Options

[cHinaman727]

At the top right corner of your engine bay, closest to the corner where your steering wheel is (if you live in the US) there is a bottle of fluid there that is almost empty for me

what is this fluid and how can i replace it?

thanks!

Bleeding isn' too hard. You need someone to help you or a really nice tool. You could buy a brake bleeding vacuum from a parts store and just use that. All you have to do with help is to find the slave cylinder and while someone else holds the pedal down you open the bleed screw on the top of the slave cylinder and then close it before your help lets up on the pedal. Then repeat till only fluid comes out and no air. Just remember to close it while they still have thier foot on the pedal or else it will suck in more air. If you buy one of the bleeding vacuums then all you have to do is hook the hose to the bleed screw and open it and pump on the vac untill all you get is fluid then close the screw. Also make sure the resevoir never goes empty or else you have to start over again.
