Description
Rather than treating clutch selection as a universal fit, the EXEDY OE Replacement Clutch Kit – 2016–2022 Honda Civic/Accord 1.5L is organized specifically for 2016–2022 Honda Civic/Accord 1.5L, with configurations chosen around daily-driven and enthusiast street applications that need dependable engagement and OE-correct fitment.
EXEDY Engineering Background
EXEDY's clutch expertise began in Japan in 1923 and expanded worldwide through the Daikin Clutch legacy. Unlike brands focused only on aftermarket friction products, EXEDY also operates as an OEM powertrain supplier, bringing production-level engineering and validation experience into its street-performance and racing clutch programs.
Why This Part Fits the Build
EXEDY OE Replacement clutch kits are designed around factory power levels and factory-style drivability. They are the right choice when the priority is smooth take-up, predictable pedal behavior, and a service replacement that works with the vehicle's original clutch architecture rather than adding unnecessary aggression.
Best for stock to near-stock vehicles, commuter use, restoration work, and owners who value refinement over added clamp load. EXEDY states that its OE Replacement kits are rated for OEM power levels; heavily modified engines should move to an appropriate performance series instead.

Selection Notes
