Take it back to the dealer if it is still under warranty. And if they approve the change, DO NOT leave it there because they will leave you without a car for more than a month!

I actually have a Toyota. But we have the same transmission. 6 Speed manuals. I got so sick and tired of grinding and throwout bearing chirping that I installed a T-56 with internals out of the Viper/Corvette. The dealer keeps changing the trowout bearing only to have it start chirping again. Problem is there is no pilot bearing. Name: DSC03931.jpg Views: 316 Size: 129.1 KBHere is old Toyota 6 speed.
