    My car has 196,000 miles on it. Completely stock 08 civic LX. When I’m idling, I noticed the RPM’s drop to 500 then jump up to 1000 when my AC is on. It happens a lot. I have a new AC compressor installed, new OEM motor mounts, new battery, new alternator, new ignition coils, replaced some...

    I'm preparing to throw a k24a2 into my Si and while the motor's out I want to upgrade my clutch, would I need to buy a clutch and flywheel kit specific for the TSX's? or can I still buy one meant for the Z3s? I can't seem to find any info on this so any help is appreciated!

    Just had a k24 swapped into my 07 by a garage, and afterwards felt like the clutch was completely worn out. To be noted beforehand the clutch was more than fine and felt as grippy as ever. Now it feels like the bite point on the pedal is all the way out and this other shop is telling me it needs...

    The issue I'm having right now with my 08 Si's transmission has gotten worse over the course of 1 to 1.5 weeks. It started out as a very faint noise coming from the engine bay to a loud whirring/grinding noise (sometimes clicking) when the clutch is engaged/disengaged. Whenever I let the...

    Hello, I've got a new scraping sound that occurs when releasing the clutch in any way; starting in 1st, shifting gears, etc. Also occurs when I let off the throttle while in motion. I can't get a good video of it due to my skunk2 exhaust droning but it sounds similar to scraping your bumper. I...

    I just got a brand new clutch assembly and clutch cable thrown in on my 07 civic si. Doesn't matter if its wet or dry, when i slow down to take a corner, i throw it in neutral and then depending on my speed, that's what gear ill put it into. Recently about 50% of the time the shifter will go...
  13. Clutch & Transmission
    So my slave cylinder went out the other day, and usually that's not a big deal, I replaced it and bled the clutch. Only I could not get the clutch stiffen up like it was before. It felt super soft and the engagement point was almost at the floor. Fast forward to today and im in neutral, wishing...
  14. What is This?
    My clutch pedal in my 07 civic LX picks up extremely high. I barely have to push the pedal down at all to shift. Is this adjustable? Would a flush if some sort fix this? thanks

    I have a 2007 civic Si. I recently bought the car and it needed a motor. I replaced the motor and have driven the car a couple of times before this clutch issue started. The clutch pedal has gone soft and the slave cylinder only seems like it's extending about an inch or less against the...

    A while ago I noticed my clutch slipping while under moderate power. (2000 rpms then jumping to about 3-3500 drove it like this for about 5000 miles due to work) I’m driving it around town and suddenly it won’t fully engage. I don’t remember completely but might have felt a snap when it...
  17. Civic Si
    The '08 Si I bought a few months ago is the first manual/standard car I've ever owned. I watched countless videos "how-to" guides for driving stick before buying the car and thought it wouldn't be as hard for me to pick up as it's been. I even had a stick-driving buddy with me the first few...

    I have a squeaky clutch and wondering if I can take the whole rod out as per the below photo (without removing the CMC From the car) lube it and refit without having to remove clutch fluid/bleed etc? Or will all the clutch fluid pour out if I do the below once removing the circlip? Thanks,

    Hows it going guys. I bought my Si a few years ago and learned manual on it. I bought the car at 105k and replaced the clutch around 110k. This was definitely me destroying what was left of it trying to learn. By the time I replaced the clutch I was pretty good at driving manual. But 40k on the...
