i drive a 98 ex with 63k miles and i noticed a loud whining so i automatically thought of the throw out bearing, the noise will go away wen the clutch is pushed in and will occur wen it is out, i was told that if it was the T.O bearing it would be loud wen the clutch is in and quiet when the clutch is out. any suggestions.. thanks

 

I think it may be your Main Input Shaft Bearing. It is pretty common to go out on EKs.

 

yeahh i read that, isnt that alittle more of a job then the T.O?

Sounds like it .

EDIT:
AT OP:
Eh, it is, not much though, you have to drop the trans anyway.
