I had my clutch replaced under warranty at 43,000 miles, now at 96,000 the clutch is slipping again. Looks like Honda clutches are lasting an average of 48,000 miles. UNACCEPTABLE !!!!!

In this day and age should be at least twice that.

How frustating is it that these clutches don't last long.

I can't believe with the amount of complaints (must be at least 800 across the forums) on here about clutch issues that we haven't all got together and started a petition.

Are we all just going to keep paying Honda for there faulty clutch parts or do something about it!!!

i'm thinking BBC
