Default Should I get the clutch TSB?

I am fast coming up on the end of my warranty (February) and I wondering if I should get the clutch TSB done even if I feel I don't really need it. Will not getting it done screw me later when I am past warranty? Will it hurt resale value?

How worn do you think your orig clutch disk is? Have you ever accidentally fried it jerrypeterson style?

I'd be scared to let the dealer mess w/ it ....... new disk isn't much better noise wise and rumor has it (I talked to Woodwork way back when) doesn't perform as well as the 1st iteration disk.
DON'T DO IT MANNNNN!!!!!!

The very reason I have not done it up until now (besides the fact that I don't consider it a problem) is that I don't want the dealer messing with it. So I say from your mouth to God's ear, I shall not get it done. Thanks, RT.

Also concerning clutch burn. I did drive through Jerry's clutch smoke once, but I immediately washed the car and promised to never do it again, so I think I'm okay.....

OK .. so I have had the clutch done once and the
Trans done twice ...

The second clutch is not as good as the first one !!

The Trans has improved each time.

If your not doing the trans .. for a good reason..
DON'T do the CLUTCH

Cheers
