I had the surgery done at 90k miles mostly because it was free and I had just heard the beginnings of the terminal throwout bearing.
Surprised it lasted that long. No damage, but got that fixed with the new version for a price.
It was an engine out operation so the clutch is sitting right there in the meantime.

That was sometime last winter and I hadn't really put any sort of mileage in with mostly nowhere to go to and a gamey knee.
It has had regular trips to the grocery so it's been abused with short trips. Time to blow the dust out.
Just got back from a road trip to Cannon Beach Or. and the car has performed fine as it hasn't caught fire or blown up, yet.

I've been keeping an eye on it, and there are no detectable oil leaks so far. Was also one that didn't have leaks to begin with.
Happy with the value so far, and hope it will run a few more miles.
