Actually, DCT was first brought out by Porsche in the early 1980's for it's race cars, so it's been fairly well developed over the last 30 years.
Look, it's a judgement call. My point is that the cost of the warranty plus some additional money added now and then could easily buy some costly repairs. And you get to keep your money in case there are no repairs rather than give it to the insurance company.
And like you said Nick, there's always the chance of being denied due to an exclusion. Then you've wasted your premium and have to cough up lots of dough.
