Dealerships DO screw up. The engine in my 1999 Miata self-destructed due to an engine assembly fault at only 4400 miles. After waiting six weeks for a replacement engine (which were curiously in short supply!), the Mazda dealership installed a new engine, which necessitated draining the gearbox. The guy who did the work had recently come from a Honda dealership, where ATF is commonly used in manual gearboxes, their being designed to use it, I guess. Sure enough, he fills up my five-speed with ATF. I noticed a high-pitched gear whine right away and brought it back.
So in addition to a new engine, I also got a clutch AND gearbox out of the deal.
