Default Anyone EVER encounter a bad clutch fork? v6 6mt

Got a new clutch and flywheel installed 3 days after I bought my CM6 a year and a half ago because it wouldn't go into gear. Some weeks later the clutch started chirping like a cricket. Having only on Wed one automatic ever, I knew it was the throw out bearing. The chirping stops with minimal pedal pressure. Now it has progressed to the bearing sounding very angry...but it shifts smoothly still.

Dealer claimed it was the FORK. I call BS. Opinions?

Its entirely possible. Ive done a few on Subarus for chirping noise(after having replaced the TO bearing first)

Never had that issue on a Honda but anything is possible.


(although an "angry" bearing sound IS likely a bad bearing)

Didn't your clutch kit come with a throwout bearing?

It damn sure better have. It was done at a Honda dealer 3 days after I bought the car when it wouldn't go into gear. I spent a few grand. My goal is a showroom restoration.

@VeeSykkz, at what mileage did you replace clutch and flywheel on your 06 Honda Accord 6 speed MT?
Was it preventive or had to be done?
