Sadly for this guy i think you're right.... i recently did mine by taking the engine out, not a simple or lightweight job...... in fact, i can still feel the aches......

The plate on mine was fine to look at, but the spings in the plate were weak, as was the cover itself.....if it's slipping, i would say it's mechanical rather than hydraulic, you could try though, i've been wrong before.....
