15 Evo x Oil and clutch
So I'm currently at 2500 miles and my clutch is already slipping before its first oil change.Do you guys think the dealer will replace it.Also when I called to schedule the oil change Mitsubishi is recommending basic oil for the car was wondering if this is a error or true.The service tech told me that was weird as well

I know everyone's got their own opinions on oil and break-in, and these things can vary greatly on your climate and how you drive, but does anyone subscribe to the ol' notion of breaking in a new engine with conventional oil, and switch to synthetic after about 3000 miles?

Man if your clutch goes at 2500 you need to find someone FAST to help you figure out how to drive it better.
You should get over 100k out of your clutch if you know how to drive it properly.
Expecting to change a clutch every 10000 miles is ****ing madness.
