2004 Sedan @ 79,000 miles and it isn't slipping yet. I don't know if it was ever replaced (bought the car last month).

Have a question. so I got my car in march, its my first manual, but I am pretty good now. I drive it everyday, Anyway.... SO when im on a hill and mix the clutch and gas so i dont move, what is a good RPM so im not raping my clutch? Ive done it a couple times around 1.2 but i think that might be to harsh since its sitting there so long.

When you stop on a hill, you should set the hand brake and when you need to go, release it as you start. Some practice will make it smooth and seamless. Holding the car on a hill with the clutch will eat it like candy.
