Do you think there's any other way to bleed the clutch other than the normal method as I've bled the system thoroughly a couple of times with the same problem....

I must admit that I have never done it on the van.... I have read though that mist people just undo the slave cylinder nipple and let it self bleed !


Have you checked the slave cylinder? the one on the gearbox, these are prone to leaking, sometimes just into the rubber boot around the piston so its hard to see as no leakage onto the ground, but this would give the same symptoms
