I bought one of these middle of last year. Two years cover.
Noticed the clutch slipping slightly maybe in the last year.
Brought it in for a headlight change and said they should look at the clutch as well.
They said they thought it was grand when they went for a drive in it but, this week, took out the clutch and said it's badly worn and needs replacing.
They want €600+ for the part. I said it's Premium Used, is that not covered.
Went off, checked. Back saying a wear item like that isn't covered.
Maybe it isn't but my feeling going for the premium used was that I'd be someway insulated from this kind of thing. Mileage was pretty low on the car, no sign clutch had been replaced previously. Either they expect it to go in that six years or you're into having unusual wear and tear on it. I wouldn't have thought I'm hard on a clutch.
Just want to check if this is standard enough.
