How many miles on your clutch ? (986)

^ My clutch let go at ~70K too. Albeit at the 10 year mark.
I probably linger on the clutch too much. By far my worst habit.

Base Boxster, 2.7L with 27900miles, original clutch.

No slippage or chatter. The clutch engages right away. So far we've been pretty lucky with this car despite a worthless PrePurchase Inspection.

I replaced mine at 72k and 13 years. It was still working, but I wanted to get the IMS done. The mechanic said it didn't have much longer. Needed a new flywheel too.

My 2000 S had 47xxx miles at purchase last May. Was expecting to replace clutch during IMSB surgery, but PO had already had it done. Dumbass was that deep in and didn't have IMSB and RMS swapped out while car was apart?!

1- perhaps it wasn't yet available, the LN IMS is a fairly recent development.

2- perhaps he had the clutch done, like most people, at the dealer. The guys who work for the company that swears there's no issue with the IMS.


i'd love to know how many grenaded m96 engines were on their second clutch.
