You're comparing apples to oranges with that statement. Re-read. I think I've already explained the reasons why I will feel that way although some may not agree.

 

you said I accidentally slipped the clutch (driver error)

I said I accidentally hit a curb (driver error)

one is a higher magnitude, but a valid comparison.

 

The big difference is magnitude along with repeatability. Apples to oranges.

If you think that it's okay to fork the money to buy a new stock clutch after spending 30K for a brand new car just because you accidently slip the clutch which took out the clutch then you got $$$$ to waste.

 

s hit, you're right. my bad. the commerical i saw said ALL wear and tear items were covered, but i just checked BMW's site and it had this..

"Full Maintenance includes items that need replacement due to normal wear and tear, provided wear and tear exceeds BMW specifications. This includes items such as brake pads, brake rotors, and wiper blades that are not covered by the original New Vehicle Limited Warranty"

 

new car will always have that hint of clutch smell while ur breaking it, and btw i had to adjust my clutch pedal to make it catch pefect with 5 miles on it

 

 

I don't know if I'd use the word warranty. When I worked for Audi, they had a 12k clutch warranty. They routinely used ANY excuse to not warranty the clutch on TTs S4s, etc etc. Basically, the dealership can claim 'abuse' anytime they feel like it, and it's hard to prove on a clutch. Point is, I never saw a clutch get "warrantied" despite the 12k mile coverage. It was always flagged as abuse. And honestly, most of the time it probably was abuse, but I know there were a few people who got taken for a ride That's partly why I don't work for them anymore, tired of seeing people get screwed.

Just food for thought.

 

well the car is running fine atm im just worried that my clutch might give me problems in the near future.

 

as far as the warranty. Im 100% positive the guy who sold me the car said it had 50,000mile warranty on the clutch. But on the other hadn im almost 100% positive that isnt true and isnt anywhere in my paperwork.

So yeah. another one bites the dust.

 

I got the actual bullentin from the servince manager stating that there in "NO" warranty on clutches.

 

not even the 12k miles thing?

 

There is NOTHING wrong with the stock clutches! End of story.

 

Only if there is a actual defect in the clutch it will be covered up to 12K. Wear and tear is not covered.

 

Fireball, please ban this guy. He has started 3 intentionally RE-***IN-TARDED threads to **** people off....

i can't think of any other reason, because humans can't scientifically be as dumb as this guy.

 

OH YES THEY CAN!!

But signing off on the banning.
