manual transmission

As I was getting out of my car today, leaving it in neutral, as I always do, I let off the clutch and hear a squeaking sound. The engine was off, I pressed it in and out 4 more times to confirm, it sounds like it's coming from the transmission area. Is that sign of something being broken?

I have a 2019 Honda Civic Si and my clutch is starting to slip. I’ve been searching and I’m considering going with the Action Clutch Stage 2 kit along with the Action Clutch Chromoly flywheel. I heard you’ll need a CMC when upgrading to a aftermarket clutch/flywheel, I was looking into the Emans...

Just wanted a second opinion before I pull the trigger on a new clutch/flywheel. I have a 2019 Si. Recently developed this knocking/rattle noise while driving, primarily from the driver’s side, in gear for the most part, very faint when coasting in neutral. Very pronounced from 1,800-3,000rpm...

I'm planning on selling my car and was thinking of keeping the shift knob as a memento. (This was my first manual car.) Obviously, I can't give the buyer a car without a shift knob, so I'm in search of a replacement. My local Honda dealer quoted C$120 for a new one, which is a little steep for...

Hey all, wanted to give back to the community by listing my work/mods on my Civic so that anyone else looking to do something similar can have a chance to ask me questions. May eventually write more detailed posts on each mod if I have a few hours to spare on weekends… Aiming for “OEM-Plus”...

Hey everyone! Fellow 10th gen owner here, and I've just recently started my own company known as Ascend Racing. You can check it out on Instagram @_ascendracing . Currently, my very first product that launched this month is a very sleek and minimal shift knob weighing in at 485g (just a hair...

I just picked up a 2020 civic sport on a lease and was wondering if there are any mufflers I could just bolt on since I can’t be welding and cutting the exhaust due to lease contract. I’m having a hard time finding any information any help would be appreciated.

Hey all. I’ve been looking around for a Sport Hatch 6MT for a few weeks and I’ve finally found one that’s within a 50 mi radius of me. The thing is that it’s the only one for about 400 mi so the dealership basically has monopoly on it. I’ve been in contact with other dealers before finding this...

I've been driving my 6MT '19 Civic HB Sport Touring for a year and I've fallen in love with this car! I've done some small mods (tints, window visors, splash guards, smoked side markers, LED fog lights, plasti-dipped emblems). I think I'm ready to do some bigger, performance mods now...

I am shopping for a new car and it is very difficult to find a SI or an Accord in my area with a manual transmission. I did get to drive a 2020 SI a couple of weeks ago and was very pleased with it. I don't like the fake vents and NO SPARE tire for the SI but it was comfortable and drove really...

I thought I would write this up seeing as there are a lot of posts on people having issues with 1st to 2nd gear shifts, as well as 3rd to 4th. Many are complaining that is not smooth, crunchy, and some are even experiencing gear lockout. Before I get into how to deal with these issues, just some...

Hey guys, I wanted to inquire about an issue that's been annoying me regarding the throttle while cruising. Maybe it's a common thing, or there is a fix... any way, here goes: I've noticed that the throttle on my Si is very touchy or sensitive in certain conditions. It is while cruising at low...

New member to both this forum and to the Civic community! I'm planning on buying my first car tomorrow, a 2019 Civic hatch sport in black. What are some of your "musts" when it comes to exterior mods? I've also heard a lot about Hondata and Ktuner, is this worth it for the hatchback sport? I am...

This is another blow to the MT. Mazda is no longer offering a manual option for their 2019 Mazda 6... https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a26986448/mazda-6-manual-killed-2019/

A couple of days ago I read an article on why the manual transmission needs to go. It was pretty fact filled and compelling. The author argued that automatic transmissions were far superior with computer controlled advanced shifting, making modern cars faster, more responsive, and more...

For the last few months I have been having sort of sluggish performance and very notchy shifting, especially between gears 1-2 and 3-4. No grinding, no lockouts, nothing like that, just sort of a slight hesitation taking off and between shifts. I feel lately that the transmission has not been...

Hey guys, I've got a 2017 Honda Civic EX-T Sedan Manual Transmission car and I'm looking around at mods like an air intake with a bypass valve among a few others and I'm curious as to what modifications I could make to my vehicle to do 2 things, the first is to increase longevity, compared to...

I am going to be changing my manual trans fluid soon, and I wanted to find out if anyone has had experience using Royal Purple Synchromax Synthetic MT fluid. Let me know your experiences, good or bad
