Clutch problems???

Has anyone else had clutch problems or problems with their pressure plate? My clutch is slipping and carrying on something awful. I'm under covered under the factory warrenty, but I'm just curious if anyone has had these problems.

they're not gonna replace your clutch. sorry. They wouldn't even look at my throw out bearing (not a wear item, should have been replaced under warranty), they said I was having trouble shifting out of and in to gears "because my clutch surface was worn out". I still get mad grip on the clutch.... Buncha retards {thumbsdown} The $$$ tally: $500 for parts, 7.75 hours of labor (about $650) <--- which I refused to pay. I snatched the parts list outta his hand and laughed in his face- pointing and everything.... then I walked off. Guess it's one more thing to learn how to do

I was already told that they would replace it. I just want to know if there have been any other problems. Come to think of it, I have problems from 1st to 2nd too.

I have had my throw out bearing replaced twice now. That wont make your clutch slip. Maybe your clutch is worn out.
