I have a 2005 civic manual. When I press in the clutch to change gears, I hear a very slight metallic grinding noise. I can only hear it when I have the windows down. Is this just the normal noise of the clutch releasing? Or could this be something different. I haven't noticed the noise until recently. The car only has 29,000 miles on it. Thanks.

Is it in all gears? It's not normal (except maybe a little bit in reverse) I would start with a fluid change.

You're clutch doesn't grind. Your clutch is made from an "organic" material, not metal. It sounds like your syncros to me. You may need to have them replaced, machined or pick up a new tranny.

Thanks. I will take it to the dealer to have it looked at since it is still under warranty.
