Clutch
#2
if you end up getting the exedy clutch you should post how it works out. I have burned mine out as well....way to early I might add because I did such heavy driving with a lot of shifting. I put 20k miles on just this year already :/ Didn't really matter my warranty is long gone as it's the clutch.... I probably don't have more than 5k miles on it before it's dead...so I'm doing the research on a good replacement.

yups i agree. but it should be like replacing a clutch from a civic or an integra. remove all the harness, remove the axle from both sides left and right. go underneath then unbolt transmission, but make sure to put a jack underneath the trans, so you can lower it and replace from there from the engine. will it be similar?

^^truth
i have 38k on my Fit and most of that is from daily bumper to bumper traffic. i expect my clutch to go out within the next 10k or so. i was thinking about replacing the clutch myself but heard that it's more involved than an ef/eg/ek clutch replacement as the subframe needs to be removed to make space to drop the trans... man, i wish i had friends who were mechanics

and how much one rides the clutch... which is the most common cause

^yeah i agree riding the clutch causes a bunch of unnecessary clutch wear.
haha i just meant how you drive your car, like heavy acceleration, high revs, stop and go (city), highway cruises, riding clutch, and so on.

i put 37k on my fit in 12 months i have the trans out now due to a bolt going through the gearsets and my clutch still looks like brand new. if anyone is interested in having their clutch replaced i can do them at my work (honda) for 150$ labor
