DIY: Fix Squeaking Clutch - Page 2

ryno069 · 02-14-2010, 09:23 AM

yup... my '00 si and '08 si have the same problem

Duce2k · 02-14-2010, 03:36 PM

Took mine in for the issue and mentioned that the CMC is the culprit, all they did was lube it and the squeak came back about a week after. I will try this DIY and see what happens....

This wouldn't happen if honda would make this correctly and put a dust shield over this spot onto the connecting rod like the omni power has.

on the omni, pull the dust cover up, grease it and voila, fixed and it doesn't leak, holds in grease and is smoother

yesterday after driving around a bit the noise has gotten worse

SteveOFG2 · 03-25-2010, 09:37 AM

to anyone that has tried this....has the noise came back????

Johnold · 03-26-2010, 09:13 PM

What about the "popping" sound? I don't have squeaking but rather a popping sound. Gets kind of annoying.

Yeah. in florida when it's hot out, it does it but this winter when it was cold out, it didn't do it....strange. I was wondering if this DIY with the lithium grease would also eliminate this problem too aswell as the squeaking.

I can live with the popping but it would be nice to try this simple DIY if I knew it was going to get rid of the popping aswell.

SteveOFG2 · 03-26-2010, 11:16 PM

i just want it to be like butter

***sivtecboi80*** · 03-27-2010, 08:53 AM

I couldnt find the permatex crap so i settled for a liquid type grease. And its been 2 weeks and my clutch pedal is silky smooth, without that dreaded creek,squeek sound!

yea i can only find permatex in a spray can...i have found other lithium greases in tubes but none of them come with a lil nozzle...wtf

***sivtecboi80*** · 03-27-2010, 04:49 PM

yeah i had to search around for a while picked up a spray can of lube much much thicker than wd40 at autozone and that worked well.

jonofmac · 04-05-2010, 01:46 AM

Figured I'd chime in. So I still don't have a returning squeak, it seems if you just get some form of lithium grease. Something thicker than WD-40 is a must, otherwise it'll dry out and you'll be squeaking again.

Ruthless909 · 04-05-2010, 01:55 AM

Awesome DIY!

Johnold · 04-21-2010, 01:55 PM

check this thread out for those with a squeaky and popping clutch. 06 Civic Si Popping Noise From Clutch

i'm pretty sure it's all the same area that has to be lubed but take a look at page 3 post #53. Str8JDM has posted some phenomenal news!

jonofmac · 05-11-2010, 02:24 AM

Update: Also saying that it's been like 4 months and still no squeaks
