Clutch Noise? - Honda Prelude Forum

Prelude UK · 02-11-2002, 02:07 PM

Hi (this is my first message),

When I am in slow moving traffic in 1st gear, my clutch seems to make a very quite metal knock noise when I lift the clutch pedal? If I push the clutch pedal down, there is no noise, but when releasing the pedal, there is a very quite knock sound. This is like the metal plates making contact? This only happens when in slow moving traffic with gentle use of the clutch.

Is this normal? Is my clutch on it's way out (if it is the clutch). Does something need adjusting?

Please help.

P.S. - Are there any other Prelude owners from the UK here?

Hey I have the same problem and have been waiting for someone to say they are experiencing it too. It sounds like coins jingling on metal when I release the clutch at slow rpm. Called the dealer and they said it could be something, but I wasn't really paying attention. I can deviate when it happens and it doesn't seem to get worse or affect anything. Mine is new with only 5K so I am not worried about it at all...
