The Honda service tech said.......oh wait what was I thinking - that's the last person to listen to.

I've seen anywhere from 30k miles to almost 100k, your results may vary.

Theres no set mileage really, just replace upon failure. I'm shopping in the mean time, so when mine goes I'll know which aftermarket setup to get.

if your tires are slipping, you'll hear the tires screech. you wont hear anything if your clutch slips. just a nasty smell.
