Default Clutch being looked at next week

as it sometimes slips after being in traffic jams or heavy town/stop start driving for more than 15 minutes.

Is this normal (will Honda just replace the clutch or try to say it's 'normal')? I'm fearful that the clutch will look OK as it won't have just done some heavy town driving so should I do a lot of stop start driving b4 I take it in or will they be able to tell anyway???

MY00 with 2/3 months warranty on it! any other things I should say don't feel right while it's in b4 the warranty runs out????

thanks in advance.

Drac,

Have you already had the clutch replaced to cure the 4k -> 3k deceleration rattle? This is a well known issue with early clutches and the fix is to put an 055 clutch plate assembly in, Honda seem to do this without question under warranty so might be worth suggesting that they do this anyway.

Edit: And check your wheels for corrosion if you have not already had them replaced.
