[QUOTE="Robert M, post: 16290613, member: 9628"] I also forgot to mention, the clutch system.......No, I am not saying the rust is causing his issue, but reality is, every time you press that clutch pedal the clutch slave sucks fluid out of the brake reservoir and into the system. If the brake reservoir has rust in the bottom (where the rust is going to settle), and probably toward the back where the clutch feed line is located as shown in my picture, that rust is going to go into the system on a regular basis and then settle in it's lowest point which is where? the clutch slave. There have also been some owners on this forum who have question how their fluid is black when the remove the line during a clutch change, some have attributed it to heat, but wait a minute, they have a oem plastic feed line, there is no way that the fluid would get so hot that it would discolor, but the plastic line is undamaged..................ding, ding, ding........rust! and it has settled/built up over time in the lowest area of the clutch hydraulic system. There was also mention of clutch dust getting into the hyd. system and making the fluid black?.....If dust is getting in, fluid should be showing signs of getting out....there were not leaks or seeping areas found. ..........and then one has to ask........"Did this contribute to the clutch failure?"
