Default Cold engine clutch noise.

Upon getting in my car to go to the gas station today, the engine was at it's "cold" temprature.

Upon pressing the clutch in, there was a slight squeak/squeal/whine as the pedal got close to the end of it's travel.

But when I got home to look at it, it did not do it while the engine was warmed up.

Now seeing as this clutch system is hydraulic instead of cable activated, what could be the issue. I know it is not the pedal itself, because the sound is coming from the inlet to the transmission where the release fork would be.

Any ideas?

Yeah, that is a cool list, but my car does not fall under that particular TSB. Any body else take a guess?

But then my EJ6 and EJ9 did it too, and a lot worse than my EM2.
