so i put a new clutch in my 1992 honda civic dx and 1st gear when i take off it makes a whining sound and i put a new clutch flywheel throwout bearing in.

 

Mine is doing the same thing and I have not been able to figure out the problem

 

did it do it before the clutch was put in?

 

Mine did, I had A Exedy stage 2 so I replaced it thinking it was maybe a glazed disc but it still does it mainly at complete stops when i release the clutch slowly. It wont do it if I let it out quick

 

did you grease up the fork and throw out bearing before in stalling it? if you did then its probly your main bearing going bad in your tranny. dose it grind at all?

 

Yes I installed everything correctly and put a new throw out and pilot bearing in, plus resurfaced the flywheel. No grinding sounds, just a high pitch squeal that almost sounds like a belt but its not

 

Causes Of Internal Clutch Noise Include:


Worn or defective input shaft bearing;
Defective or misaligned release bearing;
Worn, misaligned or improperly lubricated pilot bearing/bushing;
Worn, bent or improperly lubricated release fork;
Worn input shaft;
Improper disc installation;
Misalignment;
Damaged bearing retainer;
Loose flywheel bolts; and
Damaged disc splines, worn stop pins or broken damper.


Possible External Causes Of Clutch Noise Include:

Incorrect release system adjustment;
Worn driveshaft or halfshaft components;
Worn engine or transmission mounts;
Broken cable self-adjuster; and
Worn or improperly lubricated clutch pedal components.
To find out what is causing the noise, set the parking brake, place the vehicle in neutral and start the engine.

If you hear growling or grinding noises when the clutch is engaged, the cause is the transmission input shaft bearing.


A squealing sound that occurs when the clutch pedal is depressed and held is usually caused by a bad pilot bearing or bushing.

A chirping noise that intensifies when the pedal is slowly depressed would indicate a bad release bearing.

If you hear chirping while idling in neutral and the noise goes away when the pedal is slowly depressed, the fork/pivot ball contact point is making the noise.
