Clutch life expectancy
Tuesday, July 03, 2007 9:18 AM
I have an 03 Cavy with 167,000 kms on it (about 102,000 miles). I was wondering what kind of life others are getting out of clutches? I'm thinking about replacing it this fall instead of having it fail in the winter and having to take it to a shop and pay through the nose.






Driving a busted-up 03 cavy (damn black ice 3yrs ago!!)
Got a front bumper last year, just too lazy to paint it, and put it on

My (Original)90 Z24 is now being retired
Way too much rust Maybe it will become a V8 or something very wrong (4x4)

Picked up another 90 z24 from the west coast no rust!
But a rod bearing is spun. I got a motor, just need time!

Man do I ever miss my 3.1 V6

If its never been replaced then its not a bad idea to replace it. Its up to you though.



I want to share something with you - the three sentences that will get you through life. Number one, 'cover for me', Number two, 'oh, good idea, boss', Number three, 'it was like that when I got here.'

Clutch life depends on soo many things. Biggest is how good of a clutch driver you really are. I replaced my clutch in my 01 Z24 this past fall, while fixing the tranny. It had 85k on it and about 200 track passes on drag radials. Yet the clutch was in awesome shape. Still have it, and would use it again if I had to. I have seen clutches toast after 20k.
