slalom44,
Do you think this is related to the sticky clutch pedal problem? My clutch pedal feels like its in a bind sometimes while both depressing and releasing it. I've regreased everything under the dash with no releif.
Suggestions?

xviper, its an 02 and hasn't had any clutch work at all. The car has been autox'd and DE tracked a bit. But I would think it reasonable for the clutch plates to be wore out long before a throwout bearing failure.

there were "hotspots" on the flywheel and clutch plate that would have been a problem if just the clutch plate was replaced.
He said the throw out bearing was dry as a bone... And that my driving habits/style were the likely cause of the problem... I really couldn't argue that. Didn't tell him about all the track events and autox's...

When will they learn to schlopp a bit of grease on that spindle? I even recall seeing a post here that Honda sent out a memo to their service people about doing this on all clutch jobs - just can't remember exactly where, though.
