03 Civic LX Clutch Replacement
My son tells me that he is experiencing clutch chatter (he did not know what
it is until he described it to me) on his 03 Civic when cold on initial
start off. The car has only 44k miles, which suggests he has not taken care
of the clutch as perhaps he should have since I have gone past 100k on many
manual shifts with no clutch problems. He tells me the clutch should be a
simple replacement he and a friend can do since it appears you do not have
to remove the engine or tranmission. I suggested that he would be better
off having the dealer replace it (my only experience with clutches dates
back to late 60s Vettes). My estimate of the cost to him was around
$500.00. He thinks that's too high and the job is within his capabilities.
Any recommendations on this undertaking. Is he correct. What about cost at
the local Honda dealer?
