So did they actualy inspect it to see if it was leaking or if it wasnt tightened all the way down. One thing i know is if the fluid get contaminated itll cause the slave to go bad because the seal. How were all you guys installing and bleeding. Did u. Use all new fluid

I used brand new dot 3 synthetic. I used a one man bleeder and also did the two man method. Originally it was vacuum bled. They did not inspect it yet. Dot 3 was found on the bottom of the bell housing.

That I am unsure of. Install and vacuum bleeding was performed by a mechanic, not me. The clutch was fine for a couple weeks, then it started shitting on me.

I'll find out tomorrow if I gotta pay. They told me it was under warranty, but I didn't exactly speak up either. We'll see if the tech says anything. I won't be surprised if I gotta pay, it is aftermarket after all.

They said it was probably installed incorrectly. I didn't ask for a refund, they offered. He seemed pretty cool about it. No prob with Ky.

I payed for the install and will never let anyone but the dealer or myself work on it again. The tech at the dealership really knows his ****. As soon as he dropped the tranny, I got a call about my stage 3 and the slave that wasn't oem.

I have issue with finding the dam leak. Your blessed to know, mine is ghost leak somewhere in the system, I'm crying about finding it. Somehow she bled enough to suck air into the clutch, barely held the brakes.

GM should recall these POS parts they give us, I feel jilted. Need a ZZP Brake Line Kit upgrade option.
