Clutch issue - Honda Forum / Acura Forum

Well this morning while i was driving to school I noticed that while shifting when i go to let the clutch up it sticks down halfway for a moment and when you put the pedal in it feels kinda stiff it didn't seem to be effecting anything that i notice. Either way the car is a 90 Integra ls with the factory transmission and stock clutch, it was alo pretty cold this morning. Anybody got any ideas?

Clutch cable could have rust in it. Try to work it allitle, it should free up. If it doesn't you might want to replace it.

Is it in the pedal or the actual transmition. Could be the throw out bearing.

i would say the sound comes from the transmission. it sqeaks just a little right before my clutch pedal is all the back to disengaged and gas is applied

Does it have the cable clutch or the hydrolic, what year is it.

That's a tough one, it is hydrolic. I would guess throw out bearing. Not sure though.

ive heard of a throw out bearing before. what does it do? why would it go bad? by the way... thanks for the help

Throw out bearing engages the clutch. It is just bearings, so they go with time and normal abuse.

it completely went

. brought it the shop today to have them put in a new clutch too. they called and said it was ready but they didn't look to see if the throw out bearing was the problem. they just installed the new clutch and called it a day. great... hope that was my problem! shoulda done it myself, just didn't have the time. thanks for the help!

Better double check that. If they only installed the clutch and didn't change the throw out bearing, They are idiots. Complete idiots.

gsro11 · 02-22-2006, 08:26 AM

they should have changed the throwout bearing,that sqweel you heard was most likely your clutch...just wear and tear
