Sucks to hear, i've just discovered i've got the same problem. :(
Can anyone recommend a decent, but not overpriced clutch? I think it would be best to replace the entire clutch.
Its not the clutch, its the gearbox bearing/s
dude with those symptoms, its not the clutch release bearing... when that bearing fails, its quiet with the clutch out, and noisy with the clutch in.
your symptoms indicate a failing bearing in the gearbox, or no oil in the gbox.
hope that helps!
ummm NO...
IT IS A BEARING! Either a throwout bearing or input shaft bearing.
Opposite mate.. when clutch is out it rattles, when clutch is in... the rattling stops.Quote:

There are many posts on this topic in Honda-tech like this one:

If he had a failing bearing or no oil in the gearbox... he would have a hard time shifting... he would crunch like no tomorrow...
I've had this problem too... and itz the throwout bearing in my case... my gearbox is perfectly fine, shifts like butter.
think about it, when your foot is off the clutch, the throwout bearing is not contacting the release fingers at all! (or shouldn't be) so if the throwout bearing is stuffed, it wont make any noise when your foot is off the clutch, because its just sitting there, doing nothing, not rotating... as soon as you rest your foot on the clutch, or press the clutch in, the bearing contacts the fingers and starts to spin, and if the bearing is screwed, it'l make noise!
tell me how can the release bearing make noise when your foot is off the clutch, when the release bearing isn't even touching the pressure plate fingers? hence not spinning at all?
not tryna start an argument but i'd just like to know how the release bearing could make noise when its not even spinning, or touching anything... :?
The input shaft bearing makes a rattling sound when the clutch is NOT depressed. What happens is when you engage the clutch the mainshaft stops spinning, and so the noise stops. When your foot is off the clutch the mainshaft spins, thats why the rattling sound occurs.
If you don't belive me, read this guys write up... he took his tranny off, and what was the problem, input shaft bearing... he changed it and no more noise. Same thing, clutch in no noise, clutch out.. rattling. He didn't touch his gearbox.

dude i totally agree it quite possibly could be the input shaft bearing in the gearbox, depress clutch, that bearing stops turning.. but we were talking about the throwout bearing before! that one makes noise only when clutch is depressed, if it is faulty! i was saying that with the symptoms the first guy gave with his car, it couldnt be the throwout bearing but most likely a bearing in the gearbox (eg: input shaft bearing)
its all good dude, peace ;)
As to my previous post it is the bearing in the box. Cus i spoke to All_Motor :PQuote:

g'day,
i wasn't sure whether to re-post this in the civic section or tech section even. But figured, my g'box & engine (ys1 & b16a) debuted in the 2nd gen jdm teg.
just wanting to get a clarification on the noise. I noticed with my Civic, that at idle, there is this noise, sounds 'like' something spinning, if not 'like' a fan.
Thought it was normal. Until : i depress the clutch 'pedal', and it is quieter. Engine is idling, minus this noise. as explained in this thread already.
The noise isn't loud, bad or rattly. Just sounds like something is spinning, more like as if a fan is on or something. But no fan is on.
Is this the same, or similar description of the noise ?
just wondering as now, my 3rd gear is clipping at medium revs, and basically crunching at higher revs. & same when downshifting. other gears are fine.
i've been told that old Honda gearboxes tend to crunch third especially at high revs due to wearing out synchros. (well the ones with not too careful previous owners)
Am wondering if this input shaft bearing may have affected the synchro in 3rd. And what are the detrimental effects of driving around with the bearing in this state.
I'd say release bearing, did a clutch not long ago on EK, the bearing was pretty rooted... That was the cause of all the squealing...
Input shaft bearings dont go bang that often...

So if its the bearing when u push the clutch in it should make a ratteling noise if its stuffed?? Also If u replace a clutch shouldnt they replace that bearing at the same time?? And can ur car get stuffed from this as well?
