OK rpm @ 100kph is 2850 afa I can tell from driving.

90,000 is a bit early for a clutch unless it's done a lot of offroad
stuff, badly, I wouldn't be too worried.

Been searching on the 'web for ever and no luck.

Can anyone tell me rpm @ 100kph in a 5 spd Challenger (in 5th)

and hey while we're at it, any talk of premature clutch failure in them....?

Thanks

How premature, and what is the problem.
There have been some reports of the input shaft seal on the gearbox
leaking and dumping a little oil on the clutch.

Cheers for the prompt reply. I probably shouldn't have said "premature", I
guess I'm asking if they have a rep for wearing out a bit quicker.
Mine just clicked over 90,000 mostly country kms, but can't vouch for the
first 65 000 ............ country owner also but some people can do very
stupid things to clutches ;-)

I suspect a little bit of slip, furhter I had a bit of clutch stink
yesterday but was in traffic so not 100% sure it was me, and no smell when I
got home.
