Depending on the circumstances. You can look at this as a relief so in the future you won't have to deal with these issues. depending on how old the S is, it would make sense, if you already invested this much into it, it will prolong the car to live longer, don't give up on something once it gets sick. Would you give up your child if he / she gets sick for a month?

If you have replaced every single piece of the clutch system and you still have issues, the problem is either shotty parts or shotty installation.

sell it? No way, after all those parts that's peace of mind. When I replace parts it makes me feel good, because I know that's one problem I wont have again for a while. Except in this case.
