If fluid is coming from the back of the master cylinder it's leaking.

Change the fluid and it may stop. If it doesn't you'll need to replace the master cylinder.

I'm having the same issue on my '04, I'm starting with the slave cylinder first, then hitting the master...the slave is on it's way.

I have bled it numerous times, even threw on a steel braided clutch line and removed the slave cylinder and cleaned it out. felt great for about 20 minutes and then back to the soft stiff pedal feeling.

You can have internal leak inside master/slave cylinders. Change both if it's not too expensive. They are wear/tear items especially if you drive it hard.

no grease is supposed to come out of the master cylinder. the seal is broke and that is your pedal problem

thanks for the straight forward answer! I have been trying to find out for days if grease was supposed to come out the end of the slave cylinder.
