Default Clutch Buzz - But clutch already replaced?

I'm noticing a slight vibration during engine breaking...IE: Foot not on gas, but still in gear.

Is this an issue I should look into? Or not a big deal?

Thanks,

So, after some more investigating it seems like I'm having the issue addressed in this TSB:

But shouldn't the vibration have gone away when the previous owner replaced the clutch?

If not, do you think there's any chance Honda will fix it? My car is 01 and at 104,000.

Thanks

Im guessing the previous owner got a older model oem clutch or aftermarket. That would explain the clutch buzz.

As for honda considering you for goodwill, you can always try. It didn't work for me and I was at 40 000 miles 8 months ago.

Goodwill warranty on a 01 @ 104K = NO

I'll just leave it as is. There's no concern except for noise, right?
