How To Make Your Clutch Last Forever! - Toyota Yaris Forums

Im 59 this year and have never replaced any part of a clutch in any of my vehicles. The clutch in my 74 VW went 250,000 miles.

Heres how I did it!

1) No holding the clutch in at lights.

No holding the car on hills with the clutch.

2) Never slip the clutch except when moving off in 1st. And as little as possible then.

3) Use no throttle when shifting except when moving off in 1st. And as little as possible then.

4) Clutch pedal must be either on the floor or up in the air with your foot off it.

If you can do this your clutch will reward you with long life!
