Many factors are involved with clutch life. We replaced a customers clutch on his VW Eurovan at just shy of 900,000 km's.... all highway miles and we have serviced the vehicle since new. On the other hand we replaced a customers clutch after only one week of use, it turns out he was starting out in 3rd gear all the time in his VW Golf.

There is no said rule of thumb when it comes to clutch life.... when it starts togo south just replace it.
