If the clutch is only 4000 miles old then no it shouldn't need replacing, surely its worth contacting the company who fitted it for advice

What's to adjust on a hydraulic actuated clutch?

Sounds a bit suss to me.

One of the cylinders may have developed an internal leak causing the clutch not to disengage fully. Unusual but does happen. Certainly not an adjustment tho.
