The lifespan of the clutch on the car is about 90,000 miles, but if prper care is taken, the clutch usually lasts longer. Here are some of the clutches used in the car.:

Performance Clutches : These clutches can usually last longer unlike the ordinary clutches. Even driving hard and improper care will also make not much difference to these types.

Try not to downshift as it causes the clutches to decrease its lifespan. Downshifting not just breaks the clutch but also the engine.

What is wrong when the clutch won't go into gear?

A clutch does not go into gear. A clutch engages, Normally if a clutch fails to engage it is because it is worn. with a worn out clutch you are able to start the car in gear without your foot on the clutch and the car wont move. Normally before this happens you will notice what is known as a slipping clutch. A slipping clutch means that the engine is turning faster than it should to keep the car moving while in gear. once this starts to happen it does not take long for the whole show to come to a stand still.


How often do you have to replace your clutch?

It depends on how you drive. If you shift smoothly, it should last you a while, at least 100k miles. If you are not smooth, i.e. the car jerks a lot and you "burn" the clutch more often by downshifting when you're at high rpms for example, then you can burn out the clutch in less then a year.
