Yer it would drip between the sump and gear box it may have a hole there to allow fluids to come out you may find i only leaks when driving ie pressing the pedle down also just check the pedle and carpet to see if it has fluid on it if so it the clutch master cylinder leaking and check the back of the wheels to see if the brakes are leaking

found this


Clutch release bearing (full concentric slave cylinder release bearing unit)

is this what you were asking. dose that mean it is all one bit.if the master is leeking and its fluid was low would that make it the cluch slip. i mean dose the fluid engage the cluch or disengage the cluch or dose it do both. thank you very very very much for the help.

Yer thats the part fluid disengages and the pressure plate in the clutch helps the pedle come up fluid on the pedle wouldnt make it slip but would make sence for the fluid lose have you sat next to her while driving to see if she rests her foot on the clutch as a little bit of presure on the pedel is a lot on the clutch

Dual mass flywheel doesnt slip to protect the gearbox if it slips its buggered its there to take up the snatch between the engine and box and apparently do something to do with harmonic something or what ever :laugh:

TBH most are a load of shite they break judder and garages wont fit you a clutch without fitting a new flywheel normally so they can then rob you twice.
If it is buggered then there are people who supply solid flywheels and conventional clutches as a conversion money well spent in my book
