All,

How many miles on avg should I expect to get out of my stock clutch? Thought that there was a little bit of slip today which made me wonder.

Impossible to say, so much depends on use and driving style.

Anything between 20 and 80K, it really is that wide a margin.

Once it starts slipping though, it won't last long. Will normally start to slip in the higher gears at 4000-5000 RPM first.

Had clutch slip with as little as 2000 miles, reversing up a rather steep incline. Now have 36k's and still going strong
