Default New master cylinder

Going to be installing the new improved Black master cylinder 2012 Grand Sport. Is there any programing that's need to be completed after install? Looks to be a straight forward change out. Have been thru all the posts could find about this swap just wondering. Thanks.

I think you will need to do a Clutch Pedal Position Relearn procedure using a Tech2. Not sure if this can be done with HP Tuners or other programming software.

The clutch master cylinder comes pre bleed so you should be able to install and just pump it up. That's the way it worked in my car. You don't need to do any re learn

Yes it did come filled DOT.4 fluid. Looks to be a fairly straight forward swap. Thank you.
