It's either the clutch master or the clutch slave ;-) If you have fluid coming out of the bottom of the bellhousing, it's the slave. Needs replacing. If you're not loosing fluid, or you're loosing fluid into the passenger footwell (pull the carpet back and take a look) then it's the master. Since you say you're loosing fluid under the engine, it's the slave. I don't know why your replacement slave hasn't lasted very long, but it hasn't. This bit may sound odd, but please believe me. IME, if you replace the slave, the master will fail a short time afterwards. And vice versa. Maybe it's because of the new fluid, I don't know. But if you're intending to keep the car, then it makes sense to replace both at the same time. -- Grunff
