Go back, take another look at the pictures I uploaded, and realize that shit ceased being a lubricant a long time ago. It truly was a sticky rosin-like substance that also captured material from the disc.

This is classic lubricant failure, nothing more.
I showed them your post and everything and they said the lubricant was fine, but with techs, you never know, the manager said my clutch was done for...but the service advisor said otherwise.
