Clutch Life Expectancy
Anyone care to offer how long their clutch lasted with street driving only. No drag strip or track use. I have 25000 miles on the 2015 and all feels fine.
Just wondering what folks have experienced assuming no abuse.

I'm at 177k on the original clutch with no slipping. In all my previous cars, I get around 125k in average, so the clutch in the ZL1 is pretty bad ass. I don't track it, but many, many miles of spirited back road driving. I'd say overall, the transmission and diff are pretty tough and despite a dozen engine issues, they've never had a problem, knock on wood.

If that is 177k on a ZL-1 clutch that is music to my ears. I have 68k right now with no issues |

Hit the fun pedal more and life expectancy drops considerably. Before I swapped to 4L80e, I averaged 2,000 per clutch.

Nice to know how robust the stock clutch is. I'm glad I'll have many years/miles left before it needs to be replaced.
