| 2011 VOLKSWAGEN JETTA TDI - TOOK IT IN FOR SERVICE ON 07/05/2012 AND THE DEALER STATES THAT I HAVE A MALFUNCTIONING CLUTCH (COULD BE A THROW OUT BEARING, PRESSURE PLATE OR MULTIPLE CLUTCH COMPONENTS) NONE OF WHICH HAS BEEN 100% DIAGNOSED UNTIL THEY PULL THE TRANSMISSION OUT AND INSPECT IT, TO DO THIS THE DEALER WANTS $1000.00 + PARTS. I WAS ALSO INFORMED THAT MY RIGHT FRONT WHEEL BEARING NEEDS REPLACING ($435.00) FOR THE BEARING ALONE + LABOR.
