Civic EG

just wondering and i already asked my boy, but i want to make sure: is it common in our hondas clutch to click when we engage the clutch pedal and release it? Mine seems to click from the engine bay when i push in the clutch and let it out. My buddy and i just put in a low mileage tranny and new throwout bearing a week or so ago. My clutch has life on it still and my master cylinder reservoir has fluid in it.

since putting in a new clutch a couple weeks ago, mine does it every once in a while.. not real sure what it is and i haven't noticed any issues..

is it like a single "clink" when you start moving forward for the first time after going in reverse?

If it only does it once until the next time you start going fwd after reversing, it may be a CV joint. I had a couple cars that did this.

@juice, yeah i havent had any issues either
@Teal, no its inside the engine bay and it happends when i push in the clutch and depress it. It only does 1 click when the clutch pedal is coming back up

my car does this... never going forward but once it reverse it will click once as soon as it starts moving backwards... then forward no click but if backwards again just one little click.

good thing I got 3 extra sets of axles

That's the thing my car won't be moving at all. The car can be turned off and it still does it is I press the clutch pedal in and let it out half way

from what im understanding...sounds like your pressure plate or something is stickingbut idk about trans that much so i could VERY well be wrong haha

I just noticed my car doing this tonight... exact same sound when i push the clutch in

my clutch, pressure plate, and throwout bearing all barely have 10k miles on them...

happens to me too, it kind of sounds like its up under where the clutch pedal itself is. ive read a few other threads about the same thing, no1 ever seems to know exactly what it is lol

I had finally fixed the problem, well most of it anyway. It's doesn't click anymore, but it is a little squeaky when cold out. What I did was get some lithium grease and lube the spring up where your clutch pedal is. Also the noise was coming from the pivot ball that hits the fork on the tranny when you engage and disengage your clutch. Turns out that the groove in the fork where the pivot ball hits needs to be greased up. Hope this helps you.

awesome! cool man thanks, replacing tranny soon so ill keep that ion mind

brilliant! i shall have to take meself a gander at that which you speak of!

cheers

Wish i would have seen this sooner. I would have asked you if you greased up the fork.. lol.

Well now you know..
