where the pedal pivots on the linkage under the dash, lube it up with wd-40, silicone lubricant spray, white grease spray, or just some wheel bearing grease. of course you would have to just take the pin out to do it correctly.

Mine does that too bruh, but I was just blaming it on my stage 1 clutch......I personally just have the radio up to where I can't hear it, but try some WD40 or maybe some all purpose grease.......I've been too lazy to try anything.

tried it. and for some strange reason, it didnt work. turns out to be a worn clutch cable. replaced it and the sounds gone. Last week it came back again and i lubricated the entire cable by pouring engine oil into it. no issues after that.

ok...didnt know a cable would squeek lol, maybe more of a stretching sound...good **** that you fixed the problem, antifreeze works also for future reference if it does it again...oil is thick and prob wont lube the cable all the way, and at least with antifreeze it can lube it from one end to the other.. ive used antifreeze on pto cables for tow truck trucks and other large trucks, but same principle for your clutch cable.

well it would lube all the way if u'd work the cable (with abit of patience) antifreeze sounds good but im guessing that its lubrication properties wont be as long lasting compared to engine oil..
