I would like to know how to bleed the electronic clutch on the Honda Civic fn2 2006
How did you get to the bolt that connects engine to transmission that is inside the front engine mount to the cross-member (near the starter motor)? Did you remove the radiator and all?? I can't see how I could possibly undo those wacking big nuts without better access...
Think my clutch springs are rattling on mine too, getting a rattle at low revs, pretty sure it's from the clutch

does the type r clutch kit fit onto the r18a2
Did u find your biting point got lower or higher the more worn the clutch was getting?
@FNLEW

I'd say it got lower the more worn it was but it didn't raise that much with the new one. Just got easier to engage.
My clutch pedal can be firm and all gears are a little more notchy than I'd like.....I'm thinking clutch too. I'm not getting any crunchy gears or any gear that is worse than any other, just too notchy in all gears and clutch pedal feel is not great....maybe time for clutch myself? 101k on the clock, I've done trans oil. Also did your clutch kit come with an alignment spline? Did you have to pre load the new clutch? Or was it just a case of take out old one - put new one on and fit everything back in reverse?
@FNLEW
2 жыл бұрын
I'd have started with the gearbox oil aswell. It didn't come with an alignment spline but my dad just used his fingers to feel around the edged. No preload aswell. Another cheaper thing to try is maybe look at changing your clutch fluid but that's probably too easy a fix.

You said on the video not to undo the suspension to swing out the hub to remove the drive shaft as it ruins alignment. How SHOULD this have been done? 👍
@FNLEW
2 жыл бұрын
It's something to do with either where the hub meets the lower arm or where the arm pivots from the chassis. Either way it's NOT where the shock is bolted to the hub.

The ball joint where the lower control arm connects to the bottom of the strut.Take out the pin, undo the nut and bash the ball joint housing until it pops apart. See this video kzread.info/dash/bejne/Zop12sF8iLStlbA.html

Confused why you took off the whole gearbox to change the clutch.. usually enough space in a honda engine bay to loosen and push the gearbox aside with enough room to change the clutch kit
@FNLEW
3 жыл бұрын
Definitely not possible in this model. The gearbox is pretty much supported by the engine so once you septate it to replace the clutch it's supported by nothing at all whilst the process is taking place.

@@HughCStevenson1 Yes I did.. The front round crossmember and the engine mount have to come off (engine supported on something obviously). I can't remember how many bolts thee are - IIRC there are bolts from each side. I had to do it again when the starter motor packed up - it was easier the second time when you know what to do!
