Every time i activate the clutch there is a popping sound? It always happens right when i first put preasure on it with my foot. Does anyone know what is causing the sound? Could it be a loose bushing or something like that? Please help!!

wondering what it could be...

maybe a lack of oil in the pedal???

Id be scared. Take it to honda, assuming you havent done anything to the tranny area, and the warrenty is not up.

I just managed to solve my squeeking clutch sound today. This may work for you guys having the pop noises. Anyway there are 2 ways to solving it..

1. Cut a slit in the rubber boot that covers the clutch slave cylinder. Spray WD40 or some lubricating oil into that area. Viola! Less than 5 minute job. Sound goes away. This was what the lazy dealership did to my car without me knowing until today when I decided to fix the problem myself.

2. This method is the proper way to administer this problem. First, remove the clutch slave cylinder by removing the 2 bolts that hold it to the engine block. DO NOT remove or lossen the nut that holds the DOT fluid line in place to the cylinder. Pull back on the squarish rubber boot so that you can move the cylinder aside. Remove the squarish boot. Now you can have a rough idea of how this thing works. Anyway, grease the cylinder end that comes in contact with the lever which can be clearly seen now. Grease the lever which comes into contact with the cylinder as well. Use a high temperature grease or some WD40 or lubricating oil. Put the rubber boot back in place and reinstall the cylinder. Viola !! No slit in the rubber boot but more time spent.

One of the reasons for the rubber boot slit by the dealership could be the fact that this is a common reocurring problem so cutting the slit will enable you to lubricate the part more conveniently in future. But I would go for the 2nd method if I have the time to spare. Hope this helps you guys. Cheers.

good job on the fix. one suggestion thou. dont use a petroleum based lubricant as it COULD damage the seal inside the slave cylinder and cause it to swell and then leak

Also you might want to check the clutch return spring. Mine popes when you press it all the way to the floor. SO we went ahead and moved the spring up, solved my problem until it sliped right back down into the same spot. I lubed the cylinder, didnt work. Work pretty much told me that we would have to replace the slave cylinder and the return to solve my problem.

rival559 , Follow my DIY. I am very confident that it will solve your problem. Better than replacing your blown speaker cones.

Yeah. . I get clicks. The dealership lubricated it up and it went away for awhile only to come back. So next time I stop in, I'll have them look at it again, lube it, see what happens. My guy at the dealership said that the grease isn't permanant, so it wears off. Who knows. I'll look under there, the dealership might already have a slit and I'll nail it with some WD40.

they paid for the repairs but it was not the only thing it was in for .........they replaced a total of 18 parts on my motor ,trans ,and a wheel bearing ........i guess in just hard on my car???????....then they lost parts to my car and didnt hook my amps back up or my neons ...
