Poll: How's Your Clutch?
1) My clutch is fine at less than 30,000 miles
2) My clutch is fine at more than 30,000 miles
3) I experinced a problem at less than 30,000 miles
4) I experienced a problem beginning over 30,000 miles
5) I've had two or more problems at less than 30,000 miles
6) I've had two or more problems beginning over 30,000 miles
My release bearing blew out at just under 15,000 miles. Luckily, I got a new clutch under warranty, but the experience shook me up enough to want to do some research.
I picked 30,000 miles to get a feel for long-term durability. I trust most of you don't drag race or do high-RPM drops, and I also know this poll can't be considered statistically valid...I'm just curious.

Mine started slipping at around 3000 miles
around 4000 its started to slip horribly...
went to honda they said the clutch literally exploded
they replaced all under warranty "one time good-will"
pressure plate and flywheel and clutch
at 6600 miles right now and still grabs like a champ
my guess is mine was test drove and people beat on it.
but by good chance my s2k is strong compared to others. WHEW

Just replaced mine at 36k miles (just under warranty) to get the TSB. No problems with grip. I don't clutch dump except at autocrosses (10-12 per year) and have only smoked the clutch once. I'm not easy on it but I don't try to beat the crap out of it, either...
