We'll, they have the car now and have repaired other problems with the car already...but...now they are backing down on the clutch being bad. They are telling me something about a cracked something or other which may be causing the heavy feel in the pedal and want to fix this first before they tear out the transmission. We'll see! But to answer your question...yes the clutch would be covered...but now they don't want to fix it?!?!?

So, took to three mechanics, and finally gave in a spent the 1300 on a new clutch (fly wheel was fine). After the switch the guy showed me the plate and it was worn down to the bolts (previous owner had no idea how to drive a stick obviously).

WHAT A DIFFERENCE! I basically have a new car. I had no idea how the old clutch was spoiling my experience in the car and I wish I'd spent the money a year ago!

Now I want to change gears rather than avoid it - and that what this car's about.
