Default Sqeaking Clutch Master

is it a norm for the clutch master cylinder to sqeak? I've had this replaced about 2 times now. Once at 50k and now at 129k. It was pretty bad this time so i had it replaced. Now I got it back and its better but still hear a sqeak when I press the clutch.

is it from the clutch master cylinder or the transmission? there is a squeek if the clutch fork pivot is not lubricated. the grease on the clutch fork pivot dries. unfortunatly the safest way to apply grease to that is removing the transmission...

It's a common problem with the TSX. It's the master cylinder piston rod you just need to keep it lubed up. Over time it wears off and starts to squeak/click.

Few threads where you can read more about it.
