And to no one's surprise it wont be covered under warranty.
Taking it to another local shop and hoping the flywheel doesn't need to be changed sigh
Still gonna cost me around $1500 assuming flywheel si fine

So if you are taking it to another shop, then I am assuming they didn't even remove the transmission? So how the hell would they know you need a new flywheel and clutch. I'm not sure about our stock flywheel, but most can be turned, just like a rotor. Same old story... csc goes bad, and instead of replacing a 100 dollar part the dealer tries to make you buy all new clutch components.

So true. That's what I said.

But he said they're trained to tell customers the worst case scenario

I was like whatever

They were charging me $2400 to replace the CSC and some other related components
