    Depending on how bad the bearing damage is??

    I once had a bad isb i left for a while and it ended up damaging the
    gearbox house where the isb sits. So the input shaft seal wouldnt sit in properly
    and was constantly leaking.

    Hard to say if it will or wont.

    How bad is the noise??

    To my knowledge. Hondas dont have a cluster shaft.
    They have a primary and secondary shaft. Both shaft have gears that are removable.
    In gearboxes, in most cases, its the input shaft bearing that collapses.

    Not arguing a point or saying your mechanic is wrong. Thats just my input.
    However. If there is a bearing like noise you should get it checked out.
    Depending on what it is though, it might not necessarily be in the gearbox.

    A collapsed or failed bearing within the gearbox will cause harsh gear changes, crunching and in most cases. Unable to select gears completely.
