Default Clutch recall question

I finnally got my 00 berlini S2000 and the I don't think the clutch has been replaced. I know that some of the clutches had zero problems, but mine wines on decelleration. I was planning on going by the dealer and checking on what has been done to the car and see if they can help me any.

Anyone have some ideas?

Car has 48k on it by the way

It's not a recall. Recalls are mandatory, this is a service bulletin, which is not mandatory.

The noise is a rattle or buzz, not a while on decel. It is also not a problem, other than a noise. The clutch still functions normally.

They usually don't cover replaceing the clutch disc under goodwill warranty when you are not the original owner, and your car has been out of warranty for 2 years.

You can ask for goodwill consideration, and they may or may not offer any assistance.

Welll I am hoping to get lucky. I know that it's a service bulletin, I was just wondering what my chances were with 48k miles on the car
