There's a TSB from Honda numbered 629094 that mentions the squeek can come from the clutch master cylinder. The fix is to re-grease a fitting. You use to be able to download any .pdf's from http://www-odi.nhtsa.dot.gov/cars/pr.../tsbsearch.cfm that they had available, but that doesnt seem to be the case anymore. I have the TSB, and I'd email it to you but your email address isnt listed.

Rep Power: 399 The squeaks come from one of the 3 following areas....
1. The pedal itself
2. The master cylinder linkage (there's a TSB for this)
3. The fork and bushings that triggers the throwout bearing.
Now if you would SEARCH the word 'clutch' in the problems forum, you'll find detailed explainations for each. So I'm not going to type them out.
1 can be solved with WD-40.
2 can be solved by the TSB at your Honda dealer
3 can be solved by re-packing the bushings with the grease used in the Odyssey sliding door.
DO NOT use WD-40 on the shift cables. They're coated in a silicone spray lube and WD-40 will eat it.

Rep Power: 0 Mine was the linkage inside the car behind the pedal itself. I sprayed some wd40 in there and it solved the problem. Almost a year and the mouse still hasn't come back...
I think most issues are with the linkage and just need to be sprayed, greased, whatever...
My '93 accord used to have something greased every year to keep it from squeeking...the dealer always did it for free as all my services and oil changes were/are done there. I think it was the return spring, can't remember now.
