Best Answer

The lining used for both clutch and brake are very similar . they are both usually operated hydraulically The brake linings create friction in the wheels of the car to stop it when applied . The clutch on the other hand does the opposite when at rest the clutch produces maximum friction. when applied it releases that friction.

The clutch fluid on the manual transmission is actually shared with the brake system. Like each brake caliper, the clutch has its own bleed screw located between the engine and the firewall. Simply follow the same process for bleeding the brakes by purging the fluid starting with the rear brake calipers, then the clutch and lastly the front brake calipers.
