also check the exhaust sheilds

yes i agree with toe on this one. To a new s2000 owner this sound is terrible and sounds as if your tranny is about to crumble

.

Easy fix is to change your clutch to the later models where honda had fixed the problem.

ye ive alreadyy checked all the oil levels and they r fine....so a clutch change should do the job?

its a comon problems with the s2k just a shit design of the clutch. and yeh changing clutch and the bearings would solve the problem...but shop around first for prices on labour coz some places thinks its hard and they charge a arm and a leg but adrian from toda gave me the best price any has quoted give me.....
