While they have the car request that they physically inspect the clutch and dual mass flywheel as there is an inherent design fault in this area which manifests itself more on the 320D model in particular.

If they come back to you and threaten to charge you two hours labour if they do the inspection but find no fault or just find wear and tear use then threaten them nicely to speak with either the service manager or the dealership manager. Once you speak to either manager you should end up with them waivering any charge and if they do do an inspection they will almost certainly find the flywheel has warped and leaked oil all over the clutch and will therefore replace the lot under warranty.

Push em hard as they know this is a big problem, not just a 'few' instances as they like to make out.
