In this video I show you how to replace the input shaft bearing on a 2005 Honda Civic manual transmission. This information will also apply to older Honda manual transmissions found in Civics an Acura Integras and can serve as a basic guide for rebuilding Honda manual transmissions.
The issue with this transmission was a noise when the engine was running and the transmission was in neutral. The noise also occurred when driving the car and running through the gears. The only time the noise would go away was when the clutch was depressed and the transmission was disengaged from the running engine.

that's a great work bench area to do this on
I'm curious how much a service like this costs if you're replacing the clutch anyway
I get vibration under acceleration. If motor mounts and axles are good, can the differential cause it?
You guys think Eric would lubricate my shaft?
hey Eric, thank you for this walkthrough. i have 07 honda fit manual trans that prob needs this input shaft bearing. is it pretty much same as civic trans in the procedure?
Hey Eric am having some issues with that same c clip its open but just don't go down would driving with it like that cause any problems or its just a locking mechanism
hey there! I just bought an '01 LX and the input shaft bearing is starting to fail. How long do you think it will go like this? Should I rebuild it now or wait until it completely breaks?
I've lost reverse and 5th in my 04 Civic. I just can't get it to shift. Fluid levels went low a couple of times because of failing input axle seals. What would you recommend replacing in the transmission? It has 460k on it.
Great video!!!
I changed out the main shaft bearing and my problem is gone . Thank you !!
Hey Eric, I just got done replacing my input shaft bearing afew days ago. I put all back together and mounted back on motor.
The problem I'm having is I can't get my Manual into 5th or reverse?
But all worked before just fine till I did this . Any insight u or someone that can give to help me figure out why 5th and reverse won't go into gear. All others work fine. Just reverse and 5th clutch in or not will not go into those 2 gears. Thanks
While obviously different, it's amazing how similar that is to a B series transmission on the inside
Thanks Eric I think I know why my 99 accord won't go into reverse I'm thinking the gate is out of alignment I'll know in a couple of hours
Hi Eric! @ericthecarguy
I drive a 2009 Honda Fit, or Jazz as it's called here in Europe. I have a similar sound in my car. I've owned it for almost 200.000 kilometers and I think the sound has been around for almost 100.000 kilometers and it's getting worse. Is this video applicable for my vehicle? Best rgs
I just payed 4500 to have my transmission rebuilt 3yr warranty
howmuch your charge sir
Quick question I have a 07 I have apart and the 5th gear fork slider ring I think I might have flipped it. Do you know if the longer part guys up or down in the set?
I'm planning on doing this job, I was ordering the input shaft bearing and seal on Amazon and noticed it says those parts doesn't fit my 05 civic coupe with LSW 5 speed manual transmission, do you know if all 7th generation civics use this parts ?
the 06 civic has a gasket on the tranny, they didn't use sealant and mines leaking from the case …
Big Eric you are the Man! Happy New Year!
My 3rd and 4th gear just went out in my 14 WRX and this is why i'm here.
Any part numbers for the input shaft bearing and seals?
Can I change main shaft's seal without disassembling the gearbox? (From outside?
Thank you
What's the transmission model?
Great repair videos. Sounds like Frank Zappa if he was a mechanic.
do i need to use high temp bond for case also can i use ultra gray instead of hondabond
Thanks for the video, definitely helps me a lot as I've never messed with any transmission before, pretty sure my input shaft bearing is bad
