Stock Clutch Life Expectancy
Featured on BIMMERPOST.com Dealer told me the clutches are bullet proof on the M cars. Any word from the dealer I take it with a grain of salt. Curious to know how are BMWs with their stock clutch on the previous M3s or any other models. How many miles have you put on your stock clutches? If you had to replace them, at what mileage did you replace them at? |

I had a ‘04 ZHP and replaced the clutch/flywheel at 140k miles.
Do you launch the car constantly? Drive like a grandma? Do you skip on transmission maintenance? Since this transmission is pretty much the same as the F80, you should see what those drivers are getting. And BMW released some videos explaining components of the new G8x, here’s the manual transmission. |

Never launched a manual car before. I would sometimes do some spirited driving, mainly if the roads are clear. I always perform all maintenance on time since I believe that's the key to increasing the longevity of the vehicle. Not sure if anyone else does this, but when I am driving with passengers I would watch their heads while shifting gears to see if their heads would bobble. That would be my indicator if I am shifting smoothly. Interested to see what the F80 drivers have to say. |
