Stock replacement clutch for the 2002-2006 Acura RSX 5-speed, 2002-2005 Civic Si and 2006-2011 Acura CSX with the naturally aspirated 2.0L.
A factory-style clutch kit for the 2.0L five-speed cars: the 2002-2006 Acura RSX base 5-speed, the 2002-2005 Honda Civic Si hatchback, and the 2006-2011 Acura CSX 5-speed. It crosses to 08-044 and 08-036. It is not listed for the RSX Type-S six-speed.
Included: pressure plate (10.31 inches), clutch disc (8.46 inches, 24 splines, 4 damper springs), release bearing and an alignment tool. The input shaft is 1.02 inches. No pilot bearing is included.
Common signs it is due: slipping when you get into it in 3rd or 4th, the engagement point creeping to the top of the pedal, or a burning smell after a hill start. While the transaxle is out, resurface or replace the flywheel, check the release fork and pivot for wear, and look for a weeping rear main seal.
Lightly grease the input splines and the fork contact points, center the disc with the tool, and tighten the pressure plate bolts evenly in a star pattern.
