hey guy i was just at my first service appointment with infiniti and my rep told me the clutch has a 60000 mile warrenty

thats awsome now i can burn it as much as i want... since the car is a lease

 

Sorry to tell you, but nope, no warranty on the clutch. But hey, if they said they will replace your clutch, then I would take an advantage of that.

 

Unless you got it in writing, good luck proving anything

 

are u sure cause the service rep said so

60l warrenty

 

+1 get it in writing first before you start burning clutch away.

 

clutch is wear and tear...salesman will tell you anything to make a sale

 

sales rep didnt say it my service rep said it

 

warranty protects you from manufacturer defects under normal use... not stup1d owner abuse. but burn away. i hear clutch discs and slave cylinders are cheap.

 

disc is like 80 oem...now 6 hours of labor to get the disc in and done is another story

The problem here is that they have to look at it first and decide if it's abuse or not. After they open it and decide it's not covered then your fvck coz they will charge you mercilessly but if it's really a malfunction or defect then they will cover it. So you're basically up on the dealers mercy, if you have good relationship with them and they are not an A$$ you'll get away with new clutch but if they are a Stealership then they'll make you bend over and

 

What about throw-out bearings? My car is in the service dept today to have that looked at because I'm getting a horrendous rattling at around 3k rpms. I understand if the plates are worn being a wear and tear issue. However, if the throw-out bearing is what has gone, wouldn't that be a defect? In addition, almost all 6MTs are plauged by the loud clutch chatter mainly from the design of the throw-out bearing anyways. What worries me though is that a lot of people have gone in for notchy gear shifting or excessive clutch chattering and ended up with totally new transmissions. I don't think I could ever trust a dealership to install something as complicated as a full transmission. =\
