Clutch assembly or transmission?
So I have had this same problem for the past couple months and just cant seem to figure it out....There is a grinding of some sort going on somewhere in the drivetrain...I thought it was only doing it while it was in gear but now I hear it at idle....but the sound goes away when I push the clutch in....the sound gets much louder when I am in gear and driving...anyone have any ideas?

Re: Clutch assembly or transmission?
First thought would be about throw out bearing.
And Hondas do not do this to their owners ![]() |

Re: Clutch assembly or transmission?
About 3 or 4 months ago I replace the throw out bearing, fork, flywheel, and clutch disk....so I hope thats not what it is...but its possible...

Re: Clutch assembly or transmission?
I'm just gonna ignore all the above posts and do my best to answer the original question...
I would lean towards the throwout bearing. I'm not sure why they do this, but my car does it as well... when I'm pressing the clutch, I do not havethe rattle, but when I let off the clutch it rattles. This has happened on two TOBs. That is the diagnoses both times. It doesn't really seem to affect performance (never mind that my tranny just self-destructed due to a faulty TOB and clutch fork)

Did the noise get louder while you were driving?

Re: Clutch assembly or transmission?
I do not really know your exact tranny design, but this could also be bearings/spacers on your mainshaft. Either way looks like you have to tear your car apart. Sorry for you, man.
