At 60,000 miles, they suggested replacing clutch slave cylinder and valve cover gasket. which is reasonable on a Miata. Both were original. By 80,000 miles, clutch slave cylinder and valve cover gasket had both failed. It's possible they managed to do a really lousy job installing them, or installed substandard parts, but I think the most likely explanation is "wall job".
