#1: Clutch Issues Author: danhodson, Location: Derby, UKPosted: Fri Oct 07, 2011 6:10 am ---- So over the last couple of days my biting point has been extremely inconsistent, to the point where the actual clutch gave up and started slipping, rendering the car undrivable.
I had AA roadside recovery and was recovered to a garage. I've had the clutch replaced to the tune of £390... £120 parts (the rest labour) I think thats pretty steep to be fair.
The question is, my clock says 66,000 miles, how long do clutches usually last, as I'm starting to think this isn't genuine mileage.

Clutch in just under 3 years
#3: Re: Clutch Issues Author: kit325, Location: LondonPosted: Fri Oct 07, 2011 6:36 am ---- Depends on your driving style and where normally you drive (more wear and tear on city driving).
Make sure u put in branded clutch kit set like LUK or valeo, might cost u more compare to some cheap clutch kit but will save u a lot more on long run consider labour charge is very expensive in uk.
I would say 300+ consider a reasonable charge with branded clucth kit.

really depends how the cars driven, id say look at the old clutch see if its worn evenly
