for the master cylinder to go at 25k miles you either beat the sh1t outa it (which will be evident when they take the clutch off), or its defective. im leaning towards the latter...

I didn't beat the **** out of it at all (which they noticed the clutch was fine) --- the worst thing I did to the clutch was probably trying to get it the last 8 blocks home when the hydraulics failed (in terms of trying to restart the car with partial clutch / get into gear).
It was definitely defective, and I guess when the CSC goes it can take the rest... and/or they've been burned so many times replacing just one part that they think it's better to redo the whole thing while they are in there.
Anyways, car is back now and it's running fine. Shitty to blow 800 bucks on it, but better than the alternative, and as noted, I was out of warranty by years.
