maybe make a poll?

it think it has to do with how abruptly you work the clutch pedal repeatedly.

it does seem that way, but i saw a couple people comment on some other threads that don't even have 15,000 miles and it goes out. i go through traffic every day constantly shifting and i'm at 17,500 miles in 9 months and so far nothing.

but i do like the poll idea

yah, high repetition in short amount of time probably generates heat... keep it up, the seals break. probably something stupid simple as that.

No.






























My first one lasted the longest, the second one not so much, and the third was only about 5000 kms. drove the same the whole time, if anything I was harder on the car when I had warranty.

Honestly I think the stronger pressure plate had more to do with the failures, after the first one. I've got back to stock parts and it's been good now for about 75,000kms. knock on wood.
