caked clutch fluid?
flushed clutch 15k miles ago, after a really abusive weekend the clutch started to stick. check fluids and it was a few shades darker than when new. closest color would be a newcastle brew.
Weird thing is in the resevoiur there is a caked and flakey substance that settled on the bottom. the fluid is clear, not milky. I know when you boil the clutch fluid it gets milky but has anyone seen this debris. looks like thick soap scum or deoderant.
I'm getting the clutch flushed tommorow but wanted some input from you guys.
If this doesn't fix it ill get slave and master cylinders fixed. you gotta pay to play, not complaining just wondering the cause of the caked substance

hills garage check it out today, once fluid was siphoned- drained the residue appears to be yellow, not white. replaced with the racing blue DOT 4 fluid. its cold and rainy so I doubt I could get the car to temps to replicate the problem.
ill keep you guys updated.
Anyone got an idea of the substance and what's causing it?
