Where is the clutch fluid reservoir on a 2006 toyota corolla

Do the brakes and clutch use the same reservoir? I can find only on reservoir and the clutch and brake hydraulic lines appears to run to this same reservoir. If so, what type of fluid is used: brake or clutch?

SOURCE: Hydraulic Clutch Problem in an 82 Toyota Pickup

If you are leaking fluid from the clutch master cylinder then you have air in the system. You could try and bleed the air out of the clutch slave cylinder to get the gears but it would not last. The only way is to replace the defective master cylinder, replace all of the fluid and bleed out the air through the slave cylinder.

SOURCE: 1994 toyota corolla brake lights won't turn off

Thanks for choosing FixYa and welcome. You need to check the brake switch. Your brake pedal contacts the brake switch when it is pressed down. There is a small button on the brake switch that activates the lights. It may be stuck or broke. Try to loosen the button first. If it won't, buy another one. They only cost a few dollars.

What causes hard and grinding noise when changing manual gears for a toyota corolla 16 valve engine ?

What year and mileage is on you Corolla? First check the fluid level in the brake fluid reservoir as a hydraulic clutch also uses this reservoir. Next, using a flashlight, look under the vehicle to check for any leaks under the transmission. Low fluid can make gear changes harder. A transmission leak will be a dark red colour.
The most likely cause is a worn clutch. Does it 'Slip' or jerk in other gears as you raise the pedal? This is a repair that is easier for a good mechanic to do as you will need to lower the engine to get the transmission housing off.

Why does my reverse gear grid on my 2000 Toyota

I take it you mean the transmission grinds when shifting into reverse with a manual transmission in which case the input shaft of the transmission is still partially engaged with the engine. One cause may be low fluid in the hydraulic clutch reservoir if it has a hydraulic clutch mechanism; use DOT-3 brake fluid and pump the clutch pedal a few times to remove any air. Another cause may be that the pilot bearing is hanging up; this is a major repair. Another possibility is that the clutch lining is coming loose or totally disintegrated requiring replacement.

2006 Toyota hiace diesel van clutch slipping. Are brake and clutch fluid the same? Cheers

Yes they are the same . Check that the master cylinder is operational as a slipping clutch can be a blocked compensating port not allowing the fluid to drain back to the reservoir and holding the pressure on the clutch release.

What type of clutch fluid to use in a 1998 toyota corolla

Practically applied for more than 4 decades I have found that the clutch fluid is not more than a brake fluid. This Brake fluid is broken as
DOT(s) and ranges 2 to 5. Properties are of higher numbers say like DOT 3 and 4 have more ability to resist heat and have higher boiling temperature marks than DOT 2. Cars like manufactured around 1998 should use Dextron II D or 3. If you are to top up the level (you can check the minium and maxium level marks at the outside of the fluid plastic reservoir) the best is to top up to maximum level with as same as mother fluid. If you can't get or don't know what brand or what type of clutch fluid is already exits and not to get even a small reactions between fluids, flush out the existing one and replaced with the other.
Make sure you have enough amount of fluid for your dry clutch hydraulic system. One 0.5 bottle is good enough for family and light trucks. Make sure you bleed out all the air trapped inside the dydraulic system. Good luck.

Where is the clutch fluid refill located on a 1998 toyota rav4. I found the brake fluid reservoir, but am not seeing a reservoir for clutch fluid. Any help

If you look at the drivers side of the brake fluid reservoir you should see a rubber hose that feeds to the clutch master cylinder. The clutch master cylinder is kept full via the brake fluid reservoir.

Where is the transmission cable located on 1998 corolla

Clutch cable? Actually, I think you'd have a hydraulic clutch. If it's cable, it would come out of the firewall, where your clutch pedal operates, and down to the transmission. If it's hydraulic, there'd be a clutch reservoir just beside your brake reservoir on the firewall, with a hose leading down to a "clutch slave cylinder" mounted on your transmission. If you have no clutch, this slave cylinder can be easily bled of air and will gravity feed new fluid to the cylinder.

Sister in law driving at 65 mph on turnpike, tried to down shift. Car would not down shift. Towed to my house. Clutch fluid reservoir empty. Filled reservoir with brake fluid, started engine. Forks on...

Did you bleed the air out of the system, also if empty there a leak some where. bleed system and check for leak's, look around for wetness could be a bad slave cylinder, clutch master or the line from clutch master to slave cylinder.
