Default Squeaky clutch

When I push my clutch in, it makes a squeaking noise. I just started doing this a month ago. I have 68k right now and i had 45k when i bought it. I was able to chirp 3rd when my car was stock when I just got it, but now I can only sometimes get 2nd with i/h/e. Is the clutch just going or is it sumthing else thats making that noise?

that is the pressure plate fingers flexing as you push in your clutch.

my clutch was replaced at 52k (now at 92k) and ever since my clutch makes the same noise...you learn to live with it. My pressure plate is also upgraded...not sure if that makes a difference..

i wouldn't worry about it.

as far as chirping, that is the way it goes...when its new, you can chirp easy, as it gets older, its not so easy....

Is the squeek coming from inside the car or under the hood. Could be a squeeky master or slave. As far as chirping tires, do you have the stock rubber still. It sucks and many people can chirp third with it.

the squeaking is the clutch pedal itself when I push it in. and I just got 4 brand new toyo proxes.

I would say that it is the throw out bearing...
However, once you are in there, replace the disc and plate, and get your fly-wheel re-finished/replaced.

Its expensive to replace a clutch so im just gonna wait until its goes to replace it. I was just wondering what the squeaking could be. Im not too worried about it.

Have you tried to simply spray the clutch pedal "pivot points" with silicone spray? I talking about the interior, not anything in the engine bay.

It has nothing to do with chirping your tires...chalk that up to how well the tires grab the pavement.

As for the squeak, look under your dash and lubricate the moving points on the clutch arm like ^ recommended. Spray some silicone spray or WD40, whatever you have, all over the moving parts.

Second, look at your slave cylinder. Pull back the rubber boot, and lubricate that rod as well. Youll have to pull back the thick rubber boot, then a smaller one. Also, you can take a knife and poke a tiny hole in the rubber boot's side closest to the tranny, where you cant reach it otherwise. Spray the hole and let the lubricant get in there as well.
