I was missing the stupid little washer on the salve cylinder's bleed valve so it was leaking for weeks, let my buddy borrow it and he forgot to fill under the hood and ended up screwing my 2nd gear internally.

About 3 weeks before after I had payed a mechanic to fix my leak issue (which he didnt) I was drifting in the local spot when my slave keeled on me right after a good 30 minute play period.

All because my mechanic charged me an arm and a leg to bleed my clutch system and replace the clutch kit but forgot one tiny washer I didn't notice for week's because I had some leaking from the slave master on the inside of the cabin and thought it was the slave master and not the slave cylinder on the trans.

Wow...that sucks... I have another one on the way and i hope it's the ****en slave cylinder! Cause right now i have no clutch pressure what so ever...

Did you check the Slave Master?

mine was leaking in my cabin where the clutch pedal links to the master, and my slave blew out while drifting. But both parts were faulty so make sure you check because half the time the master will keel after the slave.

Also...Bypass the clutch block if you haven't already afterwards it wont take 3 hours to bleed, plus it feels stiffer to some after bypassing it.

Myself and a few others have only told him a whole 50 times to remove it before buying things he doesn't need. I don't know if he has removed it yet or not, still.

Edit: My bad, i got you confused with a different person with the same same problems. Bleed it first, take the damper box off if you haven't already, and you should be able to bleed it in 5 mins tops with 2 people. Keep the fluids topped off, and make sure to squeeze the salve cyl boot. Mine was ****ed, but the fluid stayed in the boot, therefore i didn't think it was the slave. If all else fails, replace it, but only after damper removal.
