You'll find that this is the crux of the hydraulic throw out bearing world. Failures, leaks, and more failures.

In the end, you'll pay a ton less for a good fork/TOB/slave cylinder and it will be very reliable. If something does happen to the slave, you don't have to drop the trans to get to it.

I've had several calls in the past few weeks from customers looking to switch from one to the other. I tell prospective customers to avoid hydraulic bearings like the plague.
