Could have been trapped air. After my second CSC replacement I noticed when driving home from the dealer that the engagement point was extremely low and did not feel right. I called the dealer immediately so that I could bring it in the following morning (I would have turned around right then and taken it back but needed to be somewhere and it was drivable). The next day the clutch felt back to normal and the symptom has not come back to this day (>1.5 years, 10k miles, and a track day). I chaulked it up to trapped air that worked itself out with a little modulation. Also keep in mind that if improperly adjusted by the dealer the CSC or CMC could be over extending causing a failure or sucking in air.

Hang in there and don't give up yet...I was pretty frusterated when I went through 2 CSC's in 6 months and the car was <1year old but (knock on wood) since then all has been good.
