Need help URGENT

downshifted 5th to 3rd gear..at 60mph....my clutch broke in many pieces...some pieces went between engine and transmission..it damaged the starter and the starter box......

I went to dealer..they changed the clutch and refaced the flywheel...repaired starter...bla bla bla 1515$

Problem:

-Clutch pedal travels to floor with only little resistance (before the were a resistance)

-the friction point is very low (I push the pedal to the floor, and the friction point is a little after I released the clutch (not the same as before)

Now, I just hate the feeling of the clutch pedal

What should I do?

Of course im going back to the dealer? Will the adjust it for free?

how did u go from 5th to 3rd!? ... I went once from 6th to 3rd by mistake but caught it really quick before the synchros engaged :D

also da price is hugeeeee!!! my dealership wanted $1000 for a stage 2 clutch and mazdaspeed flywheel parts and labor installation, but I do get VIP pricing there and employee pricing. lol. I bought so much stuff from them that I guess it finally pays off.
