Message was... the clutch isn't as abrupt in engagement as it used to be when I first got it. Its always seemed to self adjust away from the floor a little despite pedal adjustment (always engages about mid stroke of the pedal). It seems to be a little easier to engage (feather). So far since I've had the clutch, I've replaced the slave and master (system seemed to die at one point, when the engagement moving off the floor). I was told the master had a back pressure release problem or something. Things were fine for a year and a half, then the problem seemed to come back, but that turned out to be a failed clutch line. Since then it has been ok, but its been on and off... also, the pressure plate teeth have a "ring" worn into them from the throw out bearing... not sure if it was like that to begin with when I installed the motor, but I'm not sure. I have been using a stock TT Z throw out bearing for 30k miles. But once she's hot, engagement is good and solid, though I can't seem to keep it adjusted as close to the floor as I'd like. It also doesn't slip once its hot. Its rock solid once warm.
