Adjusting pedal travel and bleeding the system helped for couple of weeks and then problem would come back.
What I noticed is that gears would shift better with clutch pedal only halfway in. I adjusted pedal travel (lost cruise control and got "key" light, but that I was aware how to fix)-got better, but would still have "bad days". Or no gears upon startup-not even reverse.
So few weeks ago I bit the bullet and installed Z1 CSC elimination V2 and new Exedy OEM clutch. Old Exedy had no wear and now I have a spare clutch. JWT CSC looks fine, no leaks, no wear marks or gouging. I do not know why it did not work...maybe there was some twist around shaft axis, or some fluid expansion within the cylinder.
My suggestion-ditch CSC set up and go for elimination kit once and for all. I had 3 clutch jobs in 3 years, that is f...$$$!
