Car Forum / Honda Cars / May 2007Noisy Gearbox
Hi All, The gear box in my Honda Civic seems to be making a wired noise and seems to be getting worse. As any noise it is hard to describe but the best way to put it is that it sounds like a "Tractor" I have found when the clutch is fully engaged that the nose goes away. The noise seems to be at its loudest after 2500rpm in 1st and 2nd gear. All the gears change fine without any crunching and the clutch or car do not have any vibrations. Any suggestions on what it may be or any tests I can try? My car specifications are as follows: Manufacturer: Honda Motor Co Line/Engine and Body Type: EG8 Civic 1500/4Door Sedan Body and Transmission Type: 4-Door Sedan/5-Speed Manual Vehicle Grade: LX (EG8) (GLi in Australia) Model Year: 1995 Engine Type: D15B7 Serial Number: S20 input shaft bearing?? >Hi All, >The gear box in my Honda Civic seems to be making a wired noise and [quoted text clipped - 18 lines] >Engine Type: D15B7 >Serial Number: S20 I have also found as the car warms up the noise gets more noticeable. Also the Gear Box is an S20 5 Speed Manual. > I have also found as the car warms up the noise gets more noticeable. > Also the Gear Box is an S20 5 Speed Manual. try changing the transmission oil, but it won't make a lot of difference. what i'd do is live with it for the time being, then when it's bad enough, swap the transmission with a jdm import. unless you're a d.i.y.er that's good at transmission rebuilds, it's the most economic route. I doubt is the Gear Box oil as I only use Honda MTF and I chage it ever 20,000km so I am starting to think it may be a bearing or the fly wheel. I really dont want to wait till the gearbox breaks as I would rather fix it now and do the clutch and fly wheel at the same time. - Mike > Hi All, > The gear box in my Honda Civic seems to be making a wired noise and [quoted text clipped - 18 lines] > Engine Type: D15B7 > Serial Number: S20 Same thing with my 93. Going to change the clutch next weekend i believe it is the through-out bearing.  Signaturemattridessleds http://www.automotiveforums.com I have exactly the same problem in my Civic 1.5i VTEC - My mechanic is sure it is the bearing on the input shaft, but when I went to Honda to try and order the part, they said there were a number of bearings. I dont suppose anyone would be able to describe exactly which bearing and on what shaft it would be on as apparently there are 2? Well I just bought a new clutch kit this week and I hope to install it soon. After the install I will let you all know if the problem has gone away. I am hoping it is the release bearing aka thurst bearing / throwout bearing. - Mike
