First 993 DIY project completed!
Flushed brakes and clutch slave with ATE Blue. What a cinch. I dunno what all the hype was about with the clutch slave. I did on my Carrera at least 8 times, so this was a breeze. Pedals feel so awesome now. Oil change coming up next!

Yeah, what's the big deal with 993 DiY? It's difficulty is overblown.

Richard - Can I fly you out here so you can do mine? You're a braver soul than me... damn I wish I was a DIY kind of guy.

Richard, this really is easy stuff - I mean really easy. I have a cordless impact driver, so I had all four wheels off in under 3 min. And having lift access helps too. But for the money you save by DIY'ing this stuff, you can buy your impact driver from Harbor Freight ($130), your Motive Power Bleeder from Pelican ($44), a can of ATE ($10) and you can have this done in an hour. Believe me, once you see what a PITA it is to R&R a clutch slave cylinder, you'll be flushing it every 6 mos. to prolong its life. Cheap insurance and keeps your pedals feeling right.
