Slow leak from Clutch fluid....
Thats what I got. Goes down below minimum in about a week. Time to take my car to the shop or is there anything I should check out before I go?

did u check out near the slave and master cylinders for any fluid oozing out? also check all the lines, which im sure u already did, good luck!

I've got the same problem and haven't figured it out yet. Takes about a month to go from max to min; the master and slaves are both dry and no fluid leaks near the top bleeder. I think I have a leak in the rubber line coming from some kind of small metal junction box before it goes to the slave cylinder. There's a little oily mess on top of my tranny that might be it. If you find an answer, please post.

if it's on top of the tranny, it's probably you're slave cylinder

Depending on how it's connected, I may not be able to only replace the rubber hose. That metal thing could also be what's causing the mess on the tranny. I tried cleaning it off last month but there's still some residue stains on the tranny. http://home.san.rr.com/joplin/clutchlineleak.jpg |
Update - It was a leaky hose. Finally got worse enough to see what was going on. Didn't help (or maybe it did) that the reservior got too low, air entered the line, and then couldn't be bled. Now that the search function works reliably again I find it's pretty common.
