Get a Helix motorsport clutch or something more hardwearing... Also, sow some extensions into your pockets wink

do you mean an 06 plate, or a 60 plate (i.e. a 2006 car or a 2011 car).

Surely that is a warranty claim? Although you seem pleased to have killed it.

So are they happy to fit an uprated clutch if you supply it? If not i would just let them put another standard one in and see how it goes.

Paddle clutch can be used heavily cause its got groves in it that grip the plate better! Bt i keep off the heavy clutching! smile

If real, I would suggest you stop keeping your foot on the clutch when you are driving. Or master the art of cadence clutching to reduce wear.
