Default Please help!

My friend from Orange County came into town (L. A.) to visit with his yellow s2000. We went through a few canyon runs with some other s2000's from this site and then his clutch started to slip (really bad). Does any one know if the clutch is covered under warranty on a fully stock car? The car has 20,000 miles 2001 and we want to find a place to fix it today before he drives back any ideas? Thanks for the help.

I believe it's a normal wear and tear part. Should not be covered under warranty unless I'm mistaken. You might get lucky and find a dealership that will honor that. I doubt it though.

it is sunday, no one is open....Ask the dealer that you go to if they will give you free brake pads and some new tires too, you probably used those up too...

only kidding, if something mechanical broke in the clutch system, yes it is covered, if you just wore out the clutch, no warranty.

no it probably won't be covered 20K miles is pretty good life for a stock s2k clutch from what i've read.
