Most annoying thing is I've brought it up with them in the past, while I was under the 60,000km cut off, but they swore they couldn't hear anything wrong.. Now the car's at 68,000km, suddenly "Oh yeah, that needs to be replaced" Not impressed and kinda lost for what to do at this point, I don't have the money for a clutch job right now
Technically clutch is wear and tear like the brakes, but it's really up to the service director if they'd warranty it. When mine went out at about 27K miles they did not want to honor the warranty saying the damage was due to "performance driving" and not a defect.

Moral of the story is .. if one dealer service dep wont honor the warranty take it to another.. make friends with service advisor and they might hook it up.. or not.
