warranty and also weird goo from car.

well here's the first part:


don't know about the technicalities of warranty but every car has warranty right? haha, it's a stupid question to ask, but i hear people talking about extended warranty and what not, and starting to get confused...

gotta take my 07 mini s in for this szl problem, some are having, as well as replace my clutch? (seems like i wore it out (wasn't to great at manual when i first started, and yesterday coudln't get up this hill because it was too steep, so ended up burning out my tires as well as wearing my clutch))

Got almost 10k on my car, (and i need ot get an oil change but no at the dealer :D haha) but just taking in my car for transmission/szl... if i had to pay for anything how much would i have to pay? (for my problem)



2nd: i have this weird goo comming from all parts of my car, (this black goo that's almost like oil, and also this yellow stuff that comes down from the outter ring of my headlamps as well as the front bumper.. thought it was some adheasive but it keeps coming out (doesn't flow, just slowly builds up) anyone know what this is, or if it is somethin serious? (thought it might just be from the heat of my car)

You can do a search on the goo. It's something they put on the car for shipping. There are plenty of threads on this as well as tips to clean. When we bought our 2006 Cabrio, we had this goo coming from the boot.

The car does have a warranty...

Simple Green works great on the goo (cosmoline).
