Honda Accord VII – drivetrain components: clutches, flywheels, bearings, seals and CV joints

This category includes key drivetrain components for the Honda Accord VII (2003–2008), responsible for transferring power from the engine to the wheels. You will find high-quality Aisin clutch kits, LuK dual-mass flywheels for diesel engines, Honda OEM and NTN gearbox bearings, Sachs and Nachi release bearings, driveshaft support bearings, seals and CV joints for both petrol and diesel variants.

The Accord VII drivetrain is durable, but after high mileage components such as gearbox bearings, driveshaft support bearings, clutch assemblies, CV joints or oil seals may wear out. This category groups reliable parts fully compatible with both K-series petrol engines and the i-CTDi diesel.

Aisin clutch kits – petrol and diesel

Available in this category are complete Aisin clutch kits for:

• 2.0 and 2.4 petrol (K20A6, K20Z2, K24A3)
• 2.2 i-CTDi diesel

Aisin is an OEM-grade manufacturer known for strong clamping force, smooth engagement and long service life. It is the most trusted replacement for factory Honda clutch assemblies.

LuK dual-mass flywheel – Diesel 2.2 i-CTDi

Diesel versions use a dual-mass flywheel (DMF). The LuK DMF available in this category ensures smooth operation, reduced torsional vibrations and excellent durability under heavy diesel load.

Gearbox bearings – Honda OEM and NTN

Worn gearbox bearings are a common issue in high-mileage Accords. This category includes genuine Honda bearings and high-quality NTN Japan bearings. Their replacement restores quiet, stable gearbox operation and proper shaft alignment.

Release bearings – Sachs and Nachi

Release bearings are exposed to constant load and heat. We offer Sachs and Nachi bearings – both well-known for reliability and smooth clutch pedal operation in both petrol and diesel systems.

Driveshaft support bearing – NTN

Many K-series petrol engines use a two-piece right driveshaft with a central support. The NTN support bearing eliminates vibration, shaking under load and noise coming from the right side of the drivetrain.

Gearbox and driveshaft seals

This category includes gearbox output shaft seals as well as support bearing seals. Replacing worn seals prevents gearbox oil leaks and protects the driveshafts from contamination.

Outer CV joint – HDK (Diesel)

For the diesel version, we offer a durable HDK outer CV joint, fully compatible with factory driveshaft dimensions. HDK is a long-established Japanese manufacturer specialising in CV joints for Asian vehicles.

Clutch guide sleeve – Honda OEM

The Honda OEM clutch guide sleeve (input shaft sleeve) ensures proper movement of the release bearing. A worn sleeve can cause heavy pedal feel, grinding or sticking – replacing it during clutch service is recommended.

FAQ – Honda Accord VII Drivetrain

What are the symptoms of a worn clutch?

Slipping under acceleration, shuddering, hard pedal movement, high engagement point or noise from the release bearing.

Is Aisin a good replacement for OEM Honda clutches?

Yes. Aisin is an OEM-level manufacturer and one of the most reliable choices for K-series and i-CTDi engines.

When should the driveshaft support bearing be replaced?

When vibration appears during acceleration, when there is noise under load or when play in the intermediate shaft is noticeable.

Should the dual-mass flywheel be replaced together with the clutch?

In diesel engines it is recommended, especially when vibrations, rattling noises or excessive play are present.

Should the clutch guide sleeve be replaced during clutch service?

Yes – a worn sleeve can cause sticking or grinding of the release bearing, so replacing it during clutch replacement prevents future issues.
