Nope. Unless it goes within 100 miles or something like that, they will not cover it.

Did you get this car used or new? Don't take offense to this, but if you've burnt out the clutch already in a new car I'd suggest having someone who's experienced with manual transmissions ride along with you and give pointers on how to properly feather the clutch.

If it's used it could have just been beaten to hell and back by the previous owner.

Unfortunately you cannot get this covered under warranty, it's wear-and-tear.

Thats pretty bad...unless you have a defective clutch/flywheel, you need to seriously learn how to drive an MT.

Unless it's a material defect, it won't be covered under the warranty. If it shows signs of abuse, intentional or not, you can forget about any chance of warranty coverage.

Really depends on the dealer. Sometimes you can get them to do it if you are nice about it First one anyway, 2nd time your on your own.

If you go to the dealer for only warranty complaints and never spend a nickle there your probably not going to get s***

My suggestion, atleast get your oil changed there reg. and you will have a better chance of getting things takin care of the may not be normally.

I know for fact that people that get all there maint. done at the dealer have a much much much higher chance of getting stuff covered under warranty and out of warranty (goodwill) than people that do nothing but complain.
