Thats the thrust bearing, you will need a new clutch

This is probably a stupid question but how long have I got before I need to replace?

I've needed to change my clutch for atleast 6 months now and since then it's started having other clutch rated issues, such as slipping in first and recently a 'clunking' sound when changing to reverse..
How long yours lasts is just a matter of time really, it could be 6 months from now or next week but ultimately when it does go, you could be miles away from home and only able to drive in one or two gears if at all any.
But thats the Russian roulette ive been playing for 6 months but it's not going to happen for long as im changing it next week.. Wink

I had a noisy thrust bearing for well over 10k miles. Get it changed as soon as you can afford it.

Depends how much you drive and how you drive. I was doing 300 miles a week with quite aggressive driving (not ragging but heavy acceleration), and my clutch lasted around 2 month from when i noticed the noise. Then randomly my clutch just started making thuds and i would have to jam the pedal into the floor just to change gear to get it to the garage.

But yeah do it as soon as you can afford to.
