My clutch has just had it's lube job (35000 klms) and get this... my alternator bearing also needed replacing. The dude said it was the first he has seen and they service a stack of Euros (I counted about a dozen when I dropped her off). The bearing started sounding like a jug boiling when it heated up.
All fixed under warranty. Thank you Mr Honda.
I got really well looked after by the guys @ trivets, parramatta. They deserve a clap, coz they fixed it all in one day and did oil change. It was also pleasing to be able to hire a brand new Jazz VTI CVT off them for the day - wish more dealers offered that! After driving the jazz around, it made me realise just how much better my Euro is. Another thing that impresses me with these guys is their loyalty to the Honda and the wisdom they have built-up sticking to the one brand. The're full on specialists.
After picking my car up, I also noticed it grinded when shifting from 1st to 2nd a few times, but it's gone away now. The clutch feel like it biting better and has heaps more travel before engaging (back to normal).
my car had the master cylinder replaced once when it had around 5-6000kms on the clock. Now it reached 18000kms and the creaking noise is back....
gonna have to get it replaced again
mmm.. just noticed something today, not so much a creaking clutch.
This time every time i depress the clutch, i get a loud squeek, never heard it before. It come from outside the car.
Will be getting 48000k service done soon. I'll let them know n see if it's related.

That's the clutch release fork bearing. Different issue to the creaking clutch pedal, but good luck. All I did for this problem is to lube the part that comes into contact with the slave cylinder with some high temp lithium grease. The bulk of the squeak comes from inside the gearbox, which I can't access from the outside.
t1234 you should lube it anyway to avoid it. The 06 Euro has the same issue as previous years. The problem is once it dries up and starts creaking, it will never be the same again. Spray some silicon grease into the piston above the clutch pedal ftw
