I dont care what you say mitsu will in no way cover your clutch modded or not. You'll spend more money than its worth trying to fight them. Uhh and how would you mod a car without touching the power train? Coilovers. Trust me they will void you power train for those to. Since they enabled you to drive the car harder. The Moss-Magnusson (Or Whatever its called) always sounds great but its just not reality. Sure you can fight them but it usually means months without a car and spending more money than its worth just to fix it yourself. Warranties are not for modded sports cars period

Also, did this dealership put the new clutch in? If so, you also may have a claim for workmanship. Depends on how it failed.
Either way, I wouldn't pay them $1400 for an inspection. Unless you can get them to cover it under warranty (which I doubt) get your car the hell out of there. Or ask to talk to the owner. That can get stuff done sometimes.

You think that's bad, try getting charge 60 bucks just for a few little easy diagnostics.... Stupid Porsche.
1400 is a rip off, especially if they won't do it under warranty. Find a local shop that works on Evos and take it there instead if you can. Much better service and probably a whole lot better price.

Yes they will. They won't cover it if it's worn out, but if the clutch actually failed...

They want 1400 cause of the time involved in taking down the Tranny. I dont care if it failed or not they are not going to cover it. They will tell him that he must have been abusing it
Ive seen and heard of many of brand new clutches get ruined by improper break-in. This could very well prove to be the case. No way to tell untill its apart. However its costing you 1400 just for them to pull it in hopes that its thier fault Screw them odds
I would have to agree in getting your car out of there ASAP

Either way, a clutch swap from a Mitsubishi dealership is $1000. I can't see where they're getting $1400 from just to take it apart.
