I agree - What was the outcome??
just took it for a nice drive up and down a few steep hills, didnt slip at all.
i think my problem was a little burr or lump on the rod (it looked liked weld splatter?), so when i was trying to get 1.6mm free play i wasnt getting a true mesurement if u can see what i mean, cleaned the rod up with a tiny file, just to take the edge of.

Which rod are you talking about? the slave end? - only ask as I am have similar problem which is driving me nuts...
hiya............
mine was the master end.
i pretty sure it was part of the threaded rod,,thread from rod or one of the 2 nuts, so when i was trying to get my adjustment 1.6mm of free play, it was catching on the bur? so my adjustment was all over the place. it ended in a new clutch for me?
and all these problems started off from a 4x4 garage....i should of came on here first and asked a few questions. would of saved time and MONEY

iwallace - just sorted mine, even though your description of your problem sounded like mine I found that the internals of my clutch master cylinder were broken which kept pressure on the slave as only part of the piston was returning - a weird problem and one I had not seen before. A new master cylinder sorted it out even though the original was not that old. These landy's keep you on your toes for sure.
