Default clutch hardline coating
My hardline has a coating and it wore off, would that be a result of the leak in the master cylinder? Anyone here use the extended braided clutch line and have no issues?

Remove the hardline, and use the straight braided line. Lots less hassle, and easier to bleed as well.

This is the correct response. Go on ebay, buy the single braided line that goes from the master to the slave. It makes life so much easier.

You can get a single braided line that goes from the master to the slave. It has less points of failure then the stock setup. Far easier to bleed the clutch also.
