Default Poll: Those on original factory clutch, how many miles?

What is the average life of the clutch anyway?

Default 50-75K miles.

But that figure is largely meaningless since it will vary GREATLY based on driving habits. Abuse it, and you won't even get 50K out of it. Take care of it and do a lot of highway driving, and you'll get over 150K out of it. It's no different than asking how long the brakes will last.

Default 105k but im about to get an rs4 clutch in a couple weeks

the clutch still works but its on its last leg, ive done countless number of hard launches in it and im surprised it lasted this long. Haha i cant wait to see what it looks like when i replace it.
