my clutch makes this loud creaking noise when i press it in. People on here said it's the slave cylinder push rod. So I took off the slave cylinder and greased the push rod with the special grease Honda says to (in the Helms) and it's still creaking the same.

I've also heard that it could be the TOB. I push in my clutch, and put the car in gear, and the car doesn't pull forward until the clutch pedal is like half way out, so I don't think the TOB is going bad.

Any other suggestions on what this is? or do you guys think it's the throw out bearing?

Thanks

I had the same problem before. But then again that was on my old D-series. I have a B18C1 now and I still get that sound sometimes, but it's a lot more quiet than before when it does creak. I'd like to know what causes this too, bump.

Yeah, sounds like the TOB.

TOB = throw out bearing

Throw Out Bearing. Are there any other ideas out there? if the TOB is going bad, how long will it last? Hopefully more than a year (when I graduate)

Edit: beat me to it

Is it a squeaking or a creaking? A squeaking is perfectly normal. My car did that, I took it to the Honda dealer, they said it was "normal operation" and lubed it up anyway. It still squeaks to this day and still works 100%.
