mpearce1974 Posted September 4, 2008 Share Posted September 4, 2008 Throw out bearing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turtlehead Posted September 4, 2008 Share Posted September 4, 2008 I would look under the dash at the clutch master (above the clutch pedal), see if there is fluid running down the inside of the firewall. There should not be. Also check the slave cylinder boot for fluid. Then mark the location of the throw out arm, press the clutch completely and use a board to hold the clutch pedal in (or have someone else hold the pedal). Note how much travel the throw out arm is traveling. It should be notable, if not then it is probably a bad master or slave cylinder. If the hydralics are working properly, then the clutch may be worn out or the throw out bearing is bad... Either way it is time for a clutch job and replace all items (throw out bearing, pressure plate, clutch plate). Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cranny Posted September 4, 2008 Share Posted September 4, 2008 check the fluid first. ts probably empty. and filling it will be a temp fix cause theres a reason its leaking out. lik ementioned , check the master. and also check the slave on the tranny for leaks.

Good luck. my dad looked at it and said that there is no fluid in it. so there is some leak. do you know around how much money i am looking at for all the parts.

I had similar issue with my rolla 4afe. Turned out to be the slave cylinder. Replaced it and all was good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should determine which, if both of the cylinders are leaking. They typically run between 100 and 150 a piece for each at the dealer. Labor is what you make of it. That is will you do the work yourself, or bring it to your local dealer. Labor price varies around the country, both for local shops and dealers. List price on parts also varies around the country (a combination of supply and demand, and general overhead). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do you mean "no????" You can determine which cylinder has gone bad (if it is a cylinder) yourself. If you are not willing to listen to my advice and determine what is wrong, then I will no longer spend my time trying to help you through the general diagnostics. End of discussion.

ric Posted September 7, 2008 Author Share Posted September 7, 2008 i am going to replace the clucth disk also. but when i was checking the parts catalogs of honda i couldn't find the clutch disk. the pressure plate throw out bearing and all was on it. but no clutch disk. is it just that honda doesen't sell the disk through dealer ships or does the disk come only with a complete kit.

Is that one for correct motor? Exedy is probably the closest you can get to factory, so I would think it would be the correct size! If you are buying a complete kit then 225MM would be ok, because it is matched up to pressure plate. What are the prices forthe other kits? Gripforce is where I got my setup for my Sol, and loved it! Good price too! Exedy is a very good quality manufacture! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
