Always had that annoying SQUEEL and always thought it was the clutch, but i gues its not!
Any chance there is a part number for the bearing you used from the older accord??
And when you say cheap, roughly what did you pay to get one side done?

Cheers..

man i got the exact same problem. The squeaking clutch (sometimes when taking off) and shaking when braking (happening more often now).

So its the driveshaft. is it dangerous if i keep driving like this? and how much did it set you back ($$)?

Your clutch release bearing is worn, causing a screeching sound especially when taking off uphill.

The shaking when braking is caused by either deposits on your brake rotors or warped rotors.

I also have the screeching noise when taking off, it happens more often when reversing without fully releasing the clutch uphill.
It seems to happen only on a cold start or when its raining, by the time I get to the dealer my car is warmed up and it doesnt squeel on launch anymore. Any ideas?

people have asked me is this the same as when their car shakes when braking.. well it aint =P hehe

the braking one i got too but i think it comes down to the standard euro having shit brakes =P mine make a slight noise when ive held them too long and they get hot and wobble and yeh thats different ive changed pads to project Mu NS i think and some DBA Slotted and it still happens im putting that down to shitty brake lines =D

I had the same issue on my old 05 euro. The problem was a hot spot on the flywheel causing vibrations when engaging the clutch. It sounded the same as a thrust bearing.

My dealership have experienced the issue on other Honda's aswell, so there familliar with the issue. But, this is not covered under warranty as they found no fault with the clutch operation and put it down to driver error. Even though i know i don't ride the clutch. It is hard to prove as the hot spots are all around the fly wheel.

Is this the same issue causing the 'GRINDING noise coming from my gearbox??

Mostly audible on low revs, high gear and high load.
