I have the same problem with my 2004 Accord. The clutch makes a screeching sound and rubbing feeling whenever it is slowly released. I never took it to the dealer yet but I plain to next week. I know there is a lot of miles on the car, but hey they say that Honda are though, but I hope it doesn't do this all the time.

I had the same problem with my 2004 Accord EX. The clutch makes a very annoying screeching sound and rubbing feeling whenever it is slowly released, which is all the time in Atlanta stop and go traffic. I took it in to the dealer at 35,000 and 50,000 miles. They lubed the pivot points and said that's all that they could do. This is extremely annoying and frustrating. I purchased a Honda to avoid such poor quality.
