Default Clutch replaced under warranty. Due to pedal vibration.PICS

I just started experiencing a vibration on my clutch under load. Its been goin on for out 100miles. When the car is out of gear and clutch press there is no vibration. But when clutch is pressed and in gear the vibration gets worse. It even gets worse when RPM's get higher. Went to my local dealer and problem is more than likely clutch through-out bearing. So its covered under warranty. Anyone experienced this before?

Thanks
Manny Z

Weird....you'd feel/hear it if it was in gear or not.

Just went to pick her up. Dealer replaced the clutch under warranty. Due to failure of pressure plate springs or splines. So my dealer replaced the entire clutch and throughout bearing under warranty. Would of cost me almost $2000 if it wasn't under warranty.

Pics of the work. Notice the very small burn marks.

not to bump an old thread, but I'm having this same exact problem... what exactly did the dealer says was the cause? the pressure plate springs?

my car is six months out of warranty and I'm not looking forward to how expensive this might be to fix...
