Clutch is screaming? Help?!


Just picked up a 2004 rsx type s and was running fine and drove fine. On my way home the other night when slowing down and downshifting to second a screeching noise started and the car cut off, like the clutch wouldn't engage and shut off. Started car back up with clutch pedal pressed in and loud screeching noise again.let off the clutch pedal and the noise goes away.

checked MTF and seemed very low… Refilled with honda mtf and started her back up… No fix… Tried bleeding the slave cylinder cuz the pedal felt a little spongey… Still no fix…

it only does this upon startup of the car with clutch pedal pressed down and when shifting up to second or down to second… Third through fifth gear no problems at all… Also when the car is running in neutral if i barely press down on the clutch pedal you can hear the screech start up, then when pressed all the way down it gets loud… Like metal on metal screeching noise…

any thoughts/suggestions?

also no noise when running idle… Runs quiet until you press the pedal in
