Could this be reduced by replacing the tranny fluid?

You're right: people will ask what's wrong with that POS Honda.

The solution is replacing the clutch disk; depending on mileage, wear, etc. it's quite likely that you should replace the pressure plate, pilot bearing, throwout bearing, and resurface the flywheel. I did mine at 35k miles and got away with just the disk, but I'm pretty gentle on the equipment.

Hot news flash, Testut: the OP's car is 10 years old...

Yes that is the clutch buzz. It's not harmful-- just sound. I personally like it

Clutch Buzz was designed by Honda to force people to drive s2k's in hopes to wear the clutch enough to justify replacing it

Very therapeutic indeed.
