Troubleshooting My Accord
Good news. I have located the spot the whistling/chirping noise is coming from and it is the object in the attached pictures. The first one is the general area it is in circled under the hose (can't be seen), but it is right in the front there towards the bottom. The second and third are close-ups. It moves in and out with the clutch so is it the shiftfork or the slave push pin like piggylover1985 mentioned? Would it just need to be greased up or something more serious like replacement?

You can try to apply some grease in there where the two parts are contacting to each other. If it doesn't help then the throw out bearing maybe junk, that is the bearing on the other side of the fork,it goes in front of the tranny input(main)shaft which will require the removal of the transmission.
Right ? Well i used over 30 LED and resistors all soldered into parallel circuit, but i didn't figure out how to get them to dim yet :-( since they're LED so there is no element inside like a regular bulb.

Looks good though, almost like staring in the sun. Thanks though for all the suggestions, I'll respond to the thread if some grease solves the issues.
Well, the grease didn't do much, but it does sound a tiny bit quieter. I'll choose to live with the annoying chirp than to pay to have it diagnosed and fixed. Thanks all! So far this community has been awesome! Will recommend to friends with Accords.
The throw-out bearing and/or the pilot bearing can be replaced when you have to replace the clutch.
Try pushing the metal arm back towards the slave cylinder (the part with the rubber boot). See if the noise goes away.
