hi, just a quick question - if you have a 6sp car and car sits in the garage, not started - when you depress clutch pedal - do you hear anything at all coming from a clutch area, i mean from a gearbox, not from pedal itself?

my car just started making weird squeak there, just literally almost like a hardwood floor squeaks when you walk over some spots. totally weird, i do not think it was doing it ever before. and it is new clutch. such a botheration.... i cannot hear it on the road or with engine started but when car is stopped and in the garage it is kinda annoying to hear.

 

Somtimes i hear a droney bang when i pop it in reverse

 

clicking noises, "moving parts" noises maybe but i've never heard squeaks.

 

Nada, zero, zilch.

 

Zip zero zilch

 

yep, i stopped at my mechanic this morning, he says it`s a plastic end of a clutch bearing that presses into plate that makes this creaking noise. he says it`s 'normal'. even if it is a BS there is nothing i can do, i hope it will go away with time. will see.

 

No weird noise here

 

Yes, my 2006 C4S clutch squeeeeeeks like yours after a few days not driven. It's original, 56k miles.

You are not alone........

 

my c4s with 10k squeeks but it is the pedal and i have sprayed silicone on it but not myuch help . i thought i would get some white lithium grease in a sprya can and try. any thoughts. it sounds like the spring and i can hear it when driving. my car sits a lot with only 10 k on it.

 

I hear a noise with all my manual cars

 

I hear the same noise occasionally. My mechanic described the same issue. He said that bearing develops a bit of a burr that can be sanded smooth and the whole thing re-greased. He says that this usually takes care of it.

It's all in the external linkage to the clutch so it isn't that expensive to take care of. He said about $250. I'll get to it sooner or later.
