squeaky clutch. What to do?

[tylerspeed3]

Hey all. When i press in my clutch it makes a loud squeak. its not coming from the pedal but actually in the engine bay. there is a red boot near at the end. is there a way to oil this to get rid of the squeak?

Thanks.

I don't have any help for you, but I thought I'd add my squeaky clutch story.

Around 30k mine started squeaking, sounds / feels like the PP or throw-out bearing or something. I'm now over 110k and it still squeaks. Stock clutch (lots of highway miles).

I figure once it stops squeaking, then I'll really have a problem.

Grease up the linkage?

Ya ill see if i can take off that boot and shoot some oil or grease into there. Car has 85k..

it's the slave cylinder arm usually.

For me, the boot slipped off a little, causing an elbow to dry out. I sprayed it with all sorts of lubricants and grease to clean it, and then slipped the boot back on tight.

havent had the squeak since.

I think I'm having this issue as well. It only seems to be at start up then goes away. The sqeal even increases slightly when I increase rpm to start moving. It's gone shortly after. I'm just confused on if this could be clutch because I hear the noise when clutch peddle is pressed in. Anyone have any ideas?

I'm starting to have this issue this morning. Nothing wrong with the engagement , the pedal just squeaks under the dash. The last 2-3 miles I didn't hear anymore. I guess something I can deal with as long it's not bad. I just crack 11k miles 2012 speed3. I dealt with this in my 8th gen si, but it was a loud clank noise when pedal goes down. This is just a squeak and I can deal wih it . Wonder if this has a anything dealing with being cold now? It's 40 degrees out here in Philly right now.

Uhhh yes. Cold can do a number on moving parts like this.
Seriously, locate the squeak and lube it up with some grease.
This isn't rocket science.

I installed my AP lastnight and reflashed the CS stage 1 map and took it for a few runs on the highway when i got back as i was backing in it sounded like two pieces of styrofoam rubbing against each other everytime i engaged the clutch but only in gear. i was good this morning as well until i got bored and ran 2/3 pretty hard and i heard it again.. besides the unlubed parts theory anyone have any ideas?
