By the time the clutch went out they called it "abuse" saying I was abusing the clutch. They tried to stick me with 5k to replace it. I then pointed out that it is SMG. How can I abuse a clutch that I don't even engage? Then I got the "well let me talk to my manager" then all the sudden it was covered and I had nothing to worry about.

Another thing people don't realize is BMW dealers WANT to replace parts. They do not pay for this. They are paid by BMWNA for the warranty work they do. However they have to regulate it depending on the amount of claims they put in. This is why the busy dealers are more picky than the slower dealers. Which is why I purchase my car at One dealer and service it at another. :wink:

Great Info to have, Unfortunately there is only one BMW dealership in Alaska...LOL
