this is probably a noob question, but hey we're not all perfect... :mwink:

ok i recently installed a new clutch in my ep, but EVER since it was put in it's popped/creaked...

i went to a tranny shop and had it everything checked and it was fine. then i went to a suspension shop and they said everything was right, but the springs might be shifting. (g/c coilovers, tokico struts)

i don't think that's the problem. i was told my trie rod ends are bad, but i replaced those in early spring.

i'm using mobil 1 10-40 synthetic motor oilinstead of tranny fluid. could that be it? this is prolly it, but i don't know... :mrolleyes:

You've put oil into the tranny that's out of spec... did you not read the manual to determine the proper tranny fluid? :mrolleyes: Put Honda MTF in there before you check anything else.
