I was driving my car and the clutch pedal went soft. I've been told by multiple shops that something inside my tranny is bad, either the pressure plate or the clutch itself. Funny thing is that I got it because of some special that was advertised with H-T. Sux to have my luck... or is this normal?

 

can you describe in better detail what's wrong?

 

I don't know about the 4th gen's, but I know the 5th gens and I think accords are prone to the master cylinder developing leaks. Check the area around it to make sure it's not leaking. Alot of times all it takes is the extra pressure from a newer/upgraded pressure plate to really bring the leaks out
