I have an OEM disk and PP with a TODA flywheel. The setup is awesome, great revs and no noise at all from the lightweight flywheel.

My question is this, I have 15k on the OEM disk and have driven the car fairly hard for all 15k miles. Could it be time for a new disk? I have noticed the engagement point is getting very high up in terms of pedal movement.

Can you check the thickness of a disk without taking the tranny off?

Also, I replaced the OEM flywheel 1000 miles ago and at the time the disk was well within Hondas specs for wear....I think it had about 75% thickness left at that point.

Lastly, can OEM Pressure Plates wear out in 15K as well? Should I spend the $250 on a new OEM one while I am in there replacing the clutch?

Just want to see if anyone has burned up a clutch within 15k miles and thoughts on the other questions.

Thanks for responses.

 

Clutch wear is 99% controlled by the driver. Very rarely another mechanical issue damages a clutch.

You can't correlate milage with wear. I can kill a clutch without the car even moving if I chose to.

High engagement point is usually a worn disc. Contaminated clutch fluid, and leaking clutch master and slave cylinders can also cause engagement problems.
