Just got it firing!
Has anyone experienced clutch slippage on the 1400 Californias? I have a 2014 purchased new in October 2015, and it now has 7700 miles on it. It has been serviced by the dealer at 500 and 6200 miles, and has no engine mods or abusive riding. I went out Sunday in the afternoon heat (105+ in the Phoenix area), and the clutch started slipping after about 30 minutes when going up any incline or with increased throttle. Barely made it home that day. Needless to say, it is back at the dealership today. Clutch play and function feels normal when cold, and the hydraulic reservoir is filled. The dealer says dry clutches are susceptible to slippage in the heat, but I'm not sure I buy that.
