How many miles do you typically get out of a clutch before needing to replace it? Mine has had some occasional slipping during the last few days, but my car doesn't have many miles on it yet and I don't ride the clutch excessively (least I think I don't).
The particulars: '02 Saturn SL, 68K on the odometer. Mix of city and highway driving. The few times that it slipped I noticed it not catching at the usual place as I let up on the pedal, then some gentle vibration as I let the pedal out further, then it finally engaged completely with a bit of a lurch when I took my foot completely off and let it out all the way.
Just to further confuse me, it has worked perfectly for the last few hundred miles. Though that could be because I'm baby-ing it now that I'm worried about it.
Any thoughts? This is my first manual car, so I don't have any other cars/driving experience to compare it to.
