Unhappy grey fluff

Hi in my experience the grey fluff is clutch dust what happens is the dust works its way past the seals in the slave cylinder then the save starts to leak hence you need a new slave mutcho expense there is no seal to stop the dust getting in unlike most brake clyinders have a seal sorry

That makes sense, Andrew. Sorry to hear your news, klm. I know the feeling regarding the double declutching! I had absolutely no pedal so basically had to stick it in second, start the engine and pick up the throttle and find a parking area to avoid holding up the traffic.
