bad pressure plate or something else??????? pics inside

You are probably right but it is an over travel issue. I mentioned this in the other thread.

Your hydraulic clutch may have moving it as far as it needed to go but you (when the peddle was getting hard) were pushing it beyond what was needed.

One way to check this is with a feeler gauge. Take the inspection cover off, press in the clutch and insert a feeler gauge between the clutch disk and the pressure plate (can't remember the size of feeler gauge that should fit but it is very small).
