Did you have any problems during the installation of the clutch? I dropped mine last week to get installed and the guys at the shop have been having trouble fitting it, apparently the new disc is too thick so the clutch remains engaged when the pedal is not being pressed.
No, install was was uneventful.

Definitely have them check the clutch slave cylinder. Mine failed shortly after install. It popped out of the housing and would not retract, which would create the problem you describe. The housing is PLASTIC (crazy, right?) so if your old clutch was slipping a lot it may have become deformed. I am not sure how obvious it would be during install, but with hailing them inspect it.

You have a 1M, correct? N54 135 will NOT accept this clutch.
