Hey, For some reason my pedal has developed a very annoying squeak. It was small at first but has gotten louder, any ideas what might be causing this?
It is definitely cooming from the pedal area

 

Lube, no homo. WD40 will rust it in the future so LUBE!

 

Like on the spring coil? Or just smear it everywhere. I tried some of my bike oil but it was had to get up their, I'll try more tommorow.

 

Try some motor oil and just do it on the coils don't go crazy. Or you can always do what I did and blast the music so you don't hear it =]

 

mine stopped squeaking after i let the nut off the adjuster by a 1/2-1 full turn. doesnt do it anymore.

 

mine squeaks like hell I have tried oil or greases. I just deal with it

 

Mine squeaked like hell until the pedal assembly needed to be welded back together

Now it's squeaking again...

 

might b da clutch cable

 

Mine squeaks like hella also, sprayed everything with some wd40, and now its gone! good for about 4 months.

 

I tried some oil yestrday and it was good for a day, it seems to be coming from the rubber pivot point, I will try some good lube

 

Best is if you pull the pedal of the pivot, clean, lube and reassemble.

 

ARP moly lube works wonders for this kind of stuff.

 

well I thought I ought to let you guys know that I fixed it, just in case some one wants to try it on theirs.
I bought a can of lube at walmart for about 2 bucks, it's called white lightening or something. lubricant. I just sprayed all around that area, and used a straw to get to the cable guide hole. Pretty much sprayed all friction areas and through the engine bay I diconnected the cable and sprayed inside the cable.

let it dry and now no squeak =]

 

that white lightening is white lithium grease in a spray can. I've got some in the garage.



You picked the right thing: white lithium is exactly what you should be using on your pedal assembly; not wd40, 3 in 1 oil, motor oil, or ARP moly lube.

 

^good tip. My pedals squeeked because it was cracked.

 

Yep, I hecka forgot what it was called, I didn't feel like going in the cold to check on it, I was thinking something synthetic
but it supposedly makes a film
