Clutch issue

A year ago I had my JWT Clutch and Flywheel installed . I just recently started to I believe have a clutch master cylinder issue. I have alot of play and there is gray gunk in my clutch fluid reservoir . I have bled the lines twice and still same issue . The fluid never gets low . I have the upgraded Z speed slave as well . Would this be covered under warranty ??? Any ideas ???? Thanx !

No chance in hell of it being covered by warranty. Sorry.

That depends mostly on how you drive it. I got 60K out of mine. I should/could have gotten more.

I picked mine up 3 days ago and it burnt out on me. I ve been driving for years now, my only explanation has to be the previous owner must have abused it. It only has 28k on it now. Its in the shop, luckily its covered by warranty but makes for a huge inconvenience.

Hopefully it only gets better after this.
