Unless you are that horrible of a driver and wore out your clutch on a car that is barely a year old.
There have been some guys that have had their clutches go bad fast. Look at the 5.06 gear set thread that the guy had w/ pics. He replaced his b/c it was pretty worn.
I don't think your tranny's fixed either. I know there are some people w/ 08's that have the issue as well and they have the same 3rd gear set.

haha. you guys are killing me. Bryan i am going to call aaron and talk to him. We normally have the same ideas. I must need to ride or drive your car again. Unless something has drastically changed since the last time i dont think you need a new clutch. But i do trust aaron so if he says it then i will be very apt to believe him. Its true tho that amsoil is a bandaid but you need to get the over filled tranny fluid out asap. I am not going to get the third gear fix done tho. the amsoil has worked fine and with people putting 60-70 thousand miles on there cars with amsoil and having no problems i think it will work for me. I will try to catch up with you tomorrow to take a look at the car. I hope that your clutch is not going. that is not a cheap fix. You need to take a chill pill tho with driving your car home. Baby it during the week and then let here open on the weekend.

I just got direct tv installed so no more suddenunlink. I now have 41 hd channels.

Its like a lions den in here tonight.

Yeah i agree. but those guys could have been driving the hell outta there cars. I remember someone with an 08 was telling me that they were having tranny problems. Guys this is not a new think with hondas. The rsx has always had a problem. Its something you just learn to deal with and bandage as good as possible. But on the other hand kevin and paul have had nothing but good things to say about the tranny fix. amsoil is working fine for me so i wont mess with something that is not broken.

Coming from a guy that could legally drive for two whole years... that cracks me up.

But hey you could have been working on cars longer then that so I'll give you the benefit of the doubt.
