Clutch fluid leaking from Clutch Slave Cylinder

Clutch fluid leaking from Clutch Slave Cylinder
Please help because the shop has no clue why this could be happening.
Things replaced relative to the problem: Dual mass to single mass valeo Conversion kit.
Clutch master and slave cylinder.
Pipe rubber end that goes into the slave cylinder. ( took it off a new pipe and replaced the rubber piece)
The shop would flush the system. I drive it for a week and the leak starts again and I loose my clutch peddle an it just falls through when the fluid all comes out of that area where the slave cylinder accepts the pipe.
The shop says the pressure is to high in the system. But Idk if they are right and they don't know how to fix it. I wanted to ask you guys before I take it to the dealer.

Chances are they forgot to reinstall the grommet that fits on the end of that slave feed line, in which case would cause a leak of fluid and leave you in the situation you're in now.
Only way to get the grommet is to buy the section of the line.
It's number 13 in the diagram: http://www.realoem.com/bmw/enUS/show...diagId=21_0178

Pretty much my dad got involved in this... I know I'm 21 and dad likes to help out. But he went to the shop that worked on my car and he saw that the grommet that they took off the new pipe and put on the pipe that I had, they didn't secure it on the old pipe nicely. Like there is a lip for the rubber grommet to snap on to hold on securely and they didn't do that so they are replacing the whole new pipe with rubber piece and another new slave cylinder, flushing the system because my dad made them redo it well.... dudes should have done it right the first time. But ill let you guys know tomorrow how it drives.
Should be done by the end of the day.
