  • “A tree never hits an automobile except in self defence.” Proverb

    Wow. My clutch burned out a few days ago. After getting it replaced it’s like driving a new car! Based on how it feels now, I guess there has been a problem with it since I bought it. Pretty crazy. A year or two ago I had a chance to drive a base model Civic and noticed the clutch was waaaay cleaner/easier to push. My last stick shift car was a 92 Camaro so I was pretty used to “rock crusher” clutches. My Civic is a sport model so I figured that there was a more intensive clutch to handle it.

    Guess I was wrong.

    Either way, it’s nice to not have to worry about it now. Was also lucky enough to have noticed it early enough that I wasn’t stranded anywhere.

    It’s interesting that the mechanic noted “disintigrated” on the diagnosis.
