I'd get a 2nd opinion before you shell out $3k to replace something.


I'd also seriously consider an aftermarket clutch/flywheel/HD CSC if you end up replacing the clutch. You can get that for $1,000-1,200 and labor on a clutch shouldn't be more than 5-6hrs of shop labor. You can save at least a grand and maybe even get it for half of what the dealer is quoting you.
