Hello all - new to the forum.

I have 2 problems with my stock Prelude SI <just shy of 100k miles> and would appreciate any and all input.

1) I had the clutch replaced (actually twice) a short time ago - the clutch cable's adjustment thingy froze up, which resulted in the clutch needing replacement along with a new cable. Shortly after the new clutch was installed, the pedal 'played out' <engaged at top instead of middle> along with jerkiness during shifting and some bearing noise the shop detected. The shop that did the work <specializes in Hondas, Toyotas, and Nissans> said the flywheel was out of spec (5-one-thousanth play) so they machined it and replaced the clutch at no charge. Now it's doing the same thing - pedal is 'played out' - its done this for as long as I've owned the car (4 years) - I baby this thing - almost mint - and definitely don't hotrod it. Its got to be something that hasn't been addressed - any ideas? Like I said, the cable, clutch, and flywheel have been looked at. Could it be something in the transmission that is 'holding back' and causing excess friction on the plate when I get it up to highway speeds?

2) I get front-end vibration at 60-70mph. I have replaced the tires (along with having the new ones balanced) and have moved the stock alloy rims around. Vibration varies day to day. Sometimes there is none when I first get it up to speed - then vibrate - sometimes its there and lessens as I drive. Any ideas?

Thanks for your help.
