How long can a clutch last? What's the highest number of miles you've seen before changing one?
This is not to find out how you know a clutch needs to be changed, but to see how long one can actually last. I've heard different numbers.
It's impossible to answer this, really. I'll assume you are talking about a manual transmission. But, after that, we'd need to know the kind of vehicle, the kind of loads it carries, what is the normal driving terrain like (hilly?) and the habits of the driver.
Here are a few things that can shorten the life of a clutch:
- Driving with your foot on the clutch, even if you are not pressing it. Resting your foot on the clutch takes out the free play, which means your clutch is probably slipping, though you may not notice it
- Not keeping the clutch adjusted properly so it has free play in the pedal
- Carrying a lot of weight constantly will put strain on the clutch
- Driving in hilly conditions or having to make stops on inclines (e.g. San Francisco driving) a lot.
Under average conditions I'd say a manual clutch should last 5 years plus or minus.
In my old Mustang, I had the clutch changed at 100k miles and it still had 20% left. It really depends on the driver and where they're driving. Lots of hills means you're going to be harder on it and new manual drivers are going to beat up a clutch pretty quickly.

Name one thing you learned from dating your last partner.For example I started dating a good friend, started doing drugs together, and now we are no longer together after a rocky year long relationship. I don't regret becoming lovers, but lesson learned: Don't do drugs with good friend...
