Whining sound whenever the clutch is engaged or even touched! 01 Accord Coupe 2.3L
I hope some of you can help me figure this out.
Whenever I engage the clutch to put my 2001 Honda Accord Ex 2.3L Coupe 5MT into gear, I hear a hardcore whining and I notice the idle drops substantially. However, when it is in gear, the car sounds and drives fine. There is, however, a more subtle whining/clicking when it is left in neutral where it keeps a proper idle of 7-800 RPM.
This problem seems to be at its worst when I takeoff from stop to 1st gear, when the idle drops as the sound kicks in and lights dim as it sometimes loses power completely.
-Recently changed the master relay to one I got from a junkyard and had to change the middle pipe from the messed up winter we just had in the NY Metro
- I def need to replace/rebuild power steering pump as it is leaking
-There has been a slow leak from distributor's internal seal
Although, I know I got to get to these problems asap, what does my clutch have to do with my power steer pump / alternator / ac condenser and their belts?

You should of post in the transmission/drivetran forum. Sound like the input shaft bearing is gone.
