greetings. has anyone out there had any proplems with there clutch at 45k like its stretching sounds weird; but every time u put your foot down its like a rope been stretched....

Sounds like the clutch is FUBAR. I changed mine at 50K.

Was going to say it sounds like the cable is on it's way out but.....seeing as Obi Wan replied...I'll keep quiet.

mine went @ about 50k too

Changed mine at 30k

Oooh good thread Conor

Could any of you wise ones tell me whether you went for aftermarket items and if so which... ooh and who did you get to fit them ?

(I can feel mine starting to slip and would rather pre-empt the strike than completely burn it out Austin Maestro banger style)

Both of mine went before 40k and the third one will be replaced this weekend with a bit of luck.

I'm just approaching 35k ... any advice Des ?

53k here :wave23d:

Changed for an uprated Sachs one from IP

Same here - uprated Sachs clutch + lightened flywheel from IP. Probably best to get it fitted locally to you.

so i can expect mine to be on its way out already????bl00dy hell 36k on the clock,now revo'd and driven "briskly".

how much are new uprated ones?and how long can i expect the new one to last?

Mine's at 58K now, but no sign yet?!?!? Or perhaps I just don't know what a knackered clutch drives like

I'm now at 45k and clutch is still going strong. No need to worry Jason.
