Dark grey clutch fluid

[wangboy925]

I just installed a new OEM mastery cylinder and a SS clutch line that replaces the rubber line (the SS line is about 1 feet long). I put new fluid in the master and a couple of weeks later it turned greyish dark color instead of the clean clear color. I do see a small water looking droplet along the stock clutch line going to the slave cylinder. I think there's a leak when i installed the SS line but the resevior always looks full. I think the leak is so small that the fluid levels dont even drop.

The main problem is that the engagment point on my clutch pedal is going lower and lower to the floor. Installing the new items above is the follow up of this thread: http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/new...pedal-engagement-point-changed-over-time.html

Im in the same boat. I have no clue why my fluid is changing to the color your describing. Same thing here with the engagement. Anybody else have this problem and find the solution?

The color change is due to the seals in your master/slave cylinders wearing. I've seen clean fluid in a car before but mine is only clean for about 2 weeks before it turns grey again.
