Since you own one I'm sure you realize to not feather the throttle. It keeps the clutch in friction. I always keep a small glide to a light and try not to stop but make sure the car is in first. Don't creep up. Let traffic get or move up before you engage. So many people creep every 2 feet. Not necessary. My clutch is very good shape. 16k miles. Dealer put on computer and said clutch wear was very low.
