I haven't been there for any clutch issues. I went a couple times, one of them being for the stuck hatch problem. The hassle they gave me just to look at a friggin spring for the hatch has put a sour taste in my mouth. I'd never take it to them for something like the clutch 'feel'. Hell, the last two times I was there one tech or another claimed he couldn't pull the car around because he didn't know how to drive a manual transmission. I've pretty much relegated myself to doing all my car maintenance and using the dealer for 'big' warranty issues only.

I agree with you on your experience,

You can change the clutch fluid but it isn't likely to make a difference on a 6000 mile car. You do get a fair bit of brake in wear on these clutches so your best bet it attempting to adjust the travel or get used to the higher take up.
