i bought my car brand new back in october, and this would not be my first manual car

i noticed my cars clutch has been slipping since 6k miles and its now at 10k

this whole time i thought it might have been the CDV but it seems to get really bad now especially up a hill

ive never noticed this on any of my previous cars

i do drive my car fairly hard redline fairly often but 1- i never ever ride my clutch. over speed bumps you would see me going in and out of neutral

2 at a start i start off at around 1100 rpms if that. I cant say ive never launched my car but if at all its been twice.

im wondering if its my driving (ive always been anal about the clutch) or if not do you think honda will take it as consideration as a faulty product.

and it would be kinda wierd to get it all the way up to 8k with the tech in the car

 

Take the CDV out and see if that helps.??? i have an 04 and it had 9800 miles on it when i got it 5 months ago and within 2 weeks i went and bought a 03 slave cylinder.. just for insurance...

 

It's not suprising that people take it to redline with the tech in the car. Heck, he'd do it for you. With that said, I'd definitely take it to the tech before I mess with the CDV; otherwise, he'd say that you tempered with the car, causing the clutch to malfunction.

 

I assume it is under warranty. Don't mess with the CDV. Take it to Honda.

 

yeah do that .... i didnt think about that ... new car with clutch slipping i would take it back too.
