    It aint just one. Calm your britches. One guy posted about what he thought was a clutch issue turned out to be the crank shaft issue, and then a whole bunch of F56 owners chimed in. Some were at 8k or less.

    This is a must ^

    Route 66 has a great extended warranty. Covers everything except regular maint. type stuff for $1500
