At 52k my original flywheel had a blue burn marks on it,about a 1/2" wide. Plus every shop that I called for a clutch job advised me to just change out the flywheel as well. A mechanic told me that when the clutch disc is worn that's when the flywheel gets damaged,as to what happens when the clutch is worn I'm not sure.
