2014 V8 Vantage Sportshift clutch question

Greetings all. I have a 2014 Vantage V8 that came in with a burnt up Sportshift pump.. new pump installed and now it goes into gear but acts like a slipping clutch and throws a trans code of P0186D- Clutch not opening... has 26k.. is this about normal for Sportshift clutch to be done? Or is there something else that goes on? Thanks in advance guys!

You may have air in the system. Proper bleeding and a cutch wear read wouldn't be wrong. Need the dealer to perform.

26k miles on an Aston clutch is likely a reasonable expectation... if the PO burned up the pump, the clutch is likely not far behind... dealer can check clutch wear...

I replace my clutch at about 24k miles on ASM
