Default Real Quick Civic clutch question

How many miles is the OEM clutch on a Civic supposed to last...or what is the general mileage for new clutch?

All depends on driving style. But i would say the clutch should last a solid 80k if it wasnt run to hard.

man its really hard to tell, every person drives different.

Like the people who press the clutch and brake in and both hold them when they come to a stop and turn, obviously its going to wear it out faster.

ive seen cars with 100,000 miles need a new one....my accord had 150,000 thousand on the old clutch before it even started to slip...

all depends...id takea guestimate around 120,000 miles.... im sure im off.

Stock honda clutch is designed to last approximately 120,000 miles with the assumption that you don't abuse it.
