Hi,

So I was reading that the reason the RMS leak may be because the main bearing is out of spec, and if I replace just the seal, I will start leaking in the future.

Could the shake in the beginning be excessive play in the bearing?

So it happens in 1st gear take off, usually when I give it the right amount of gas (no more, maybe a hair less than average?) and once engaged, give it more gas while its just starting to move.

I think it also happens if I give it too much gas and then let out the clutch.

I've run on low oil every once and a while because of the leak just FYI. Plan to do tje RMS during the clutch change.

So whats the shake during take off caused by? Idling is fine driving and shifting is fine. No hiccups, weird noises or abnormalities other than during take off.

Thanks

EDIT:

Looks like i might have found the answer. :https://honda-tech.com/forums/honda-...-gear-2616688/
