Mate has one of the above (2005 diesel) and he's complaining of a noise
I can't explain. He says it goes into gear fine, but when he goes out of
gear to change up/down there's a metal-on-metal grinding sound.
Any ideas please?
Incidentally, while on, my own car (a 2010 Honda Civic) makes a 'clutch
bearing' noise when pulling away. A sort of drone that lasts as long as
the clutch is engaged in first. No other noise in any other gear
(including reverse), and doesn't happen when the car is properly warmed
up. In fact, it only started in the recent cold snap.
The Honda forums report that this isn't uncommon, and the consensus
appears to be 'they all do that sir'. So I'm inclined to wait for a more
drastic impending failure mode. Any views?
