self adjusting clutch - I believe it keeps pedal travel consistent as clutch wears

If it's self adjusting why does it need adjustment? :-P

Default Here's a good pic, but an OEM pressure plate.....

I'm not entirely agreed on this as the cause though.

It could be that your shift fork is out of place, meaning your slave is misaligned and just hyper-extends until you blow it apart. Or you're just missing the shift fork altogether. Put some hair around it...

That's possible too, but an even more rare circumstance, IMO.

I side w/you, IMO it takes a real nOOb....but S4 slaves can be a PITA.
