Clutch fluid leaking from Clutch Slave Cylinder

Please help because the shop has no clue why this could be happening.

Things replaced relative to the problem: Dual mass to single mass valeo Conversion kit.
Clutch master and slave cylinder.
Pipe rubber end that goes into the slave cylinder. ( took it off a new pipe and replaced the rubber piece)

The shop would flush the system. I drive it for a week and the leak starts again and I loose my clutch peddle an it just falls through when the fluid all comes out of that area where the slave cylinder accepts the pipe.

First leak was where pipe comes into the slave cylinder, second leak was where the cylinder compresses. Shop said something broke there. and started to leak out from under the rubber.

The shop says the pressure is to high in the system. But Idk if they are right and they don't know how to fix it. I wanted to ask you guys before I take it to the dealer.
