Check the absorbers for leaks, and if it has become very noticeably bumpier than before then it's time to change.

Clutch replacement....4-6 months is the norm, depending on which SC you sent to.

Just curious, when you guys say the car judders, how badly is it? I mean, when i simply accelerate and decelerate, especially going over humps on a slope, it happens. but only abit. usually controllable with practice (ie step on pedal, or ease into it).

I don't know if mine is severe enough to warrant a replacement. I mean I still have 3 years of warranty to go... so... yeah. Should I hop into one of your cars to experience judders?? LOL
*
Yeah its happen initially when i got my car occasionally and frequency keep increasing after 4years with loud clicking noise and low gear jerking.I just ask the sa to check during normal servicing and then they told me that i needed clutch replacement..Now with the new clutch im actually didnt experience any obvious juddering other than lazy transmission and that annoying noise just got louder and uncomfortable..After i send the car back,well they told me i need another one without telling me whats actually the problem with new clutch..

Got a member here who changed his belt as 120k km. It was already badly cracked.

Basically anything over 100k km you'll have to be very careful.
