Clutch Fluid Leaking
I have 2001 Max and I have been have problems with the clutch fluid leaking. There are no puddle of anything when its parked. So I'm thinking the fluid is leaking as I'm driving. I find myself having to refill the reservoir about once every week and a half. When the reservoir is full the clutch works just fine. Need some help and if this is something the can be done fairly easily.

The first step is to find where it's leaking. There's nothing too difficult about replacing any part of the hydrolic system.
Inspect from the Master (on the firewall) to the slave cylinder (on the transmission) for any fluid. Check the lines coming from the Master all the way to the slave. If you don't find anything pull back the boot on the slave and look for fluid. It should be dry inside. You may have to remove part of the intake piping but it's not that big of a deal.
Let us know what you find.
