What extra parts to get for clutch replacement?
What extra parts to get for clutch replacement?
The clutch on my '02 Civic has started to slip from time to time. at 190k miles, I figure it is probably time to replace it. What parts usually come in a clutch "kit?" Anything else to consider? I'm thinking that the flywheel will need to at least be turned, unless my buddy is correct that it is easier to just replace it than find a machine shop who will resurface it.

Re: What extra parts to get for clutch replacement?
Clutch kit usually has the pressure plate, clutch disc, throwout bearing, input shaft bearing, and clutch alignment tool
It'll definitely be cheaper to resurface the flywheel, but you'll have less downtime if you replace the flywheel. I personally went the resurface route, but I was doing a complete engine overhaul at the same time, so it was a non-issue needing the extra shop time for them to resurface.
Make sure you clean and lube the slave slave cylinder while you're in there. That has a tendency to creak like a squeaky bed

edit: I meant flywheel in the 2nd sentence, not clutch. my bad.

Rear main seal, axle seals, input shaft seal, potentially the front engine mount

Coming back to this now that it is less hot. Does anyone have a strong preference for Honda parts for this, or aftermarket sources okay? I just got off the phone with my local Honda dealership and the parts guy didn't want to help at all with determining what should be in a kit, and wanted to be obtuse about part names (I ask about a "clutch disc" and he says he does not know what that is, because Honda might call it a "friction disc"). If it's really worth it, I can figure out exactly what Honda calls each part and spell it out in great detail for this guy, or I can just get an aftermarket kit from someone who doesn't look down on a shade tree mech doing his own work.

Exedy KHC08 is def the move for OEM replacement and not paying the $500 Honda OEM price tag
Here are the part numbers and list prices if you hate money. lol:
22300-PLR-003 Pressure plate, $193.48
22200-PLR-023 Friction disk, $178.37
22810-PLW-005 Throwout bearing, $94.32
91006-P10-000 Pilot bearing, $17.72
Grand total: $483.89 + tax (Sure, you can find them cheaper at like.. hondaautomotiveparts.com, but the total still comes out to $327.72 + shipping/handling and tax)
The KHC08 kit comes with all that, plus lube and clutch alignment tool for $120 on Amazon
