Thats discount from the dealers mate.
they will replace the Clutch,Cover Plate & Bearings!
Ive heard of the uprated sachs clutch kit but that way too expensive

I've got two months of warranty left, so I'm treating my clutch like the bitch it is to try and get it to go before then.

Tried to get it done through warranty but they said no its Wear And Tear :sad:
My cars only done 26,000 miles

 ^^That's not good news. :sad: When I phoned my local dealers to tell them it was going they seemed to think it would be no problem to get it done under warranty? I hope they're not  bs'ing over the phone just to try and hit me with a bill when I take her in. :fighting:

my dealer told me that my clutch wasnt covered under warranty - may have got that wrong though - and that was when i was just going through what was covered - he thought i had a manual so different case for DSG most probably
