Hey guys here is my dilemma. I have a 2011 Base Model with Sports package. I was having some trouble with my clutch and after taking it to the dealer 3 times they were finally able to "reproduce" the problem and tracked it down to a bad throw bearing. They are replacing it under warranty but I am trying to decide if I should just have them replace the clutch while they are in there since I should save some money in labor. The car only has ~25,000 miles but this was my first manual car that I've owned so I may have accelerated the clutch wear slightly but I don't think it was to bad. They want to charge me $928 to put a new clutch in. Does that seem high to you and do you think I should do it or not?

Thanks for the help!
