Recommend clutch mechanic in Milwaukee, WI

My wife's 2010 S Clubman clutch is just starting to slip in 5th and 6th at 23,000 miles. (We have both driven stick cars for 40 years and have never ridden or abused the clutch.) I understand there is no adjustment. I assume the warranty won't cover this, since it is more than 3 years since we bought it new.

I've read through a lot of the posts on clutch replacement and costs from the dealer. Can anyone recommend an independent who can do this job in southeastern Wisconsin?

Thanks.

I went to Kummrow Automotive in Glendale for my brake fluid flush but haven't done any major repairs there. They are experienced with MINIs but they charged near dealer prices for a full brake rotor/pad job. I ended up doing the job myself.

I'd also recommend Urban Motorworx, they are on Green Bay Ave and I had my PPI done by them.

For other places I use this website: http://www.minirepairshops.com/search?q=milwaukee%2C+wi Read the reviews and use it as a guide

Given your low mileage I might consider going to International to see if they'd cover it under good will...you never know!
