I got an Accord Luxobarge 06 today and it has the creaking so I'll take it to my regular Honda service place and have them check it out before its warranty runs out. I drove an 07 model which had low km's (15000) and the clutch felt a bit doughy but didn't have any creaking. Others I tried had a nice, light and springy clutch and they ranged in age from nearly new to over 100,000km's on the clock. My 97 Integra has a dynamite clutch - never had a problem with it and it still has a nice action.
My clutch creaks too. I'll get it looked at at the 40,000km service which Shyla is due for.
Such an annoying sound!
spot on. peel back the rubber boot and spray it in there. get a friend or pet to press the clutch pedal as u spray to see if ur hitting the right spot
have you been shopping around for 40k service prices?Quote:

the mechanic put oil on mine.....the creaking was softer, but it felt like shit still.
thanks for replying guys,
My gut feeling is the clutch spring, I'll call good ol' honduh today
Just an update guys,
I ordered the spring from Honda, it has to come up from Vic,
It's $11.00
I can just imaging how much of a pain it's going to be to get to this thing.. bloody Japanese cars!
Around June/July last year, my clutch started creaking for the first time since owning the car. At the time I started thinking I would need a new master cylinder, but never got around to pricing one from Honda. I put up with the creaking for a few months, until one day it just stopped creaking. I was away overseas and left my car at the airport for 2 weeks. When I came back, it had stopped creaking (it was as if someone had come along and lubed it or something!? LOL)
Anyway, on Monday it started creaking again. So this time, I straight away sprayed some Silicon spray into the master cylinder (from inside the car with the clutch pedal fully depressed). It feels silky smooth now, but for how long....
xxb4xx, i'm keen to hear how replacing the clutch spring goes, keep us posted!
PS. If you can, take some photos while you replace the spring :thumbsup:
i just put up with it, comes and goes but lately hasn't come back for a while.
mine is there repeatedly, and I hate it, looks like I'll be doing a DIY thread if anyones interested, I know eurosteve is he he,
I get the spring tomorrow, but it's the mrs bday, I'll do it on sat morning,
Cheers

If i don't use my car for a few days, the creaking is a lot softer, if not gone. When i use it a lot, esp on hot days for some reason, it creaks heaps.
Spray the silicone and you'll be alright for maybe a month if unlucky. If the master cylinder is really shafted, then the creak comes back after 1 week after lubing.
