He didn't fix his car problem, he fixed the privacy setting on the video, now we can watch it and tell him his release bearing is making that noise.

I am, no joke, going to fix this exact problem on someone's car either this or next weekend.

I just had a similar issue with an Exedy clutch that died in under 5k miles.

The idiot I hired didn't put grease on one of the parts(throttle bearing) so it slowly whittled it down to the point it wouldn't catch.

Not sure if that was the only issue....the mechanic said my entire clutch system was wrecked/destroyed beyond belief. I specifically purchased a seperate OEM honda bearing to put in after rumors that the exeddy kit had an iffy one....the whole exeddy might be the culprit or idiot mechanic....hard to say.

DON'T get the exeddy again....just spend the extra $100-200 to get the OEM although third party fly wheels are fine.

Even when the exeddy was working, it was shaking like a chihuahua when Air conditioning was on, had PITA clutch buzz, and never felt 100% solid.

The OEM honda with same brand fly wheel has none of the above issues and shifts like a champ.
