The first thing I'd do is find another mechanic.

However, it sounds like one of the following two things is happening:

1) You're stopping at traffic lights next to Hiluxes. I know it's irresistable to hold your accelerator on the floor and pull the clutch out halfway then drop it and watch the poor bugger sit in the plumes of blue smoke, but this does shorten the lifespan of the clutch somewhat. Recommendation: go and shoot all the Hilux drivers.

2) There's something contaminating the clutch fluid. Check the lid. If it's not sealing properly, and the hydraulic oil is getting water in it, it will not last long.
