Clutch Assembly
« on: July 19, 2010, 08:57:59 PM »
I know nobody drives alike But does anybody know the Life span of the Clutch in the GXP's . Mileage    wise ?  My car is 19 months old and have 18,785 miles on it. When I take it out of gear into nuteral and let the clutch out sometimes the idle drops. Don't know if its related.      :idk:      :huh:

Not clutch related. The computer knows what gear you have selected and adjusts idle accordingly.

1 Lil, you're fine. If it isn't slipping, you're good to go.

I have over 62K miles and no problems with slipping.  They should be good the life of the car if you know how to use one. ;)
