Default So Warranty does come though some times.

so i have a 04 wrb sti with 25000 miles now on it and and about two months ago my fifith and sith gear went and when i took it to subaru they told me the clutch would not be covered under warranty because of abuse to the clutch. now when i bought the car it had 15000 miles on it and i never pushed it to hard so i was a little pissed. so $1400 dollars later (ACT+Streetlite Plus installtion and kartboy FR and Rear bushings) MZM who installed it. tell me that my LSD is chattering and that the guy who owned it before me must of used and abused my clutch and differentials. So i take it back to subaru and ask them to check it out and they told me the LSD was wron out and they never had seen this before on a STI they told the price of a new one $2200 . if it would not have been covered i would have had to sell my car. But they never asked me about paying they just siad come by tommorrow to pick it up.So i was relieved when they said that. When i first got and clutch and bushing put in i was not that satisfied because it seemed a little rough especially with all the talk about how much difference the Kartboy would make it feel but after they out in the new LSD it felt just like my old clutch and the car transitioned gears smoothly I didnt think the LSD would have made that much difference. So that along with installing my new cobb short ram put the icying on the cake for this week.
