I'm not saying I'm a saint but I really have not abused the cast, no track etc.

Anyone know what a clutch replacement is on the m5?
A couple thousand at least I'm sure, with labor. Maybe take it to another dealer?

I think it's kind of ridiculous to claim abuse. I mean 502lbs/ft of torque on a single clutch for 45,000 miles. That's just normal wear.
