well......... are you sure the clutch was pushed in all the way? is the grinding happening frequently? if so definately take it back to the dealer and have them look at it. i'm assuming you still have warrenty on the car right? have them check it out. thats probably your best bet. there have been instances with bad clutches and transmissions. its rare, but out there.

Where in IL are you? I live in WI, but work right by O'Hare airport. If you're close, I could take a look at your car.
