Clutch issues?

I live in the Northeast so yes we have brutal winters and tons of salt but I regularly wash the underbody.

100,000 miles is about the right time for a clutch to start slippin'

if anything yours lasted longer than most people. prepare to fork out 800 or so for a new one or do it yourself for about 150.

So soon? My sister had a 1992 Corolla with the same shifter and gearbox and the clutch lasted quite nicely up until about 190,000 miles.

Is that a common theme among the Yaris or do other manual compact cars experience the same clutch-wear?
