Hey guys i just noticed a small annoyance today. When I was driving home from school, I noticed that my clutch started to squeak pretty loud whenever I let it out pretty much near where the engine catches.

This doesn't happen if the car is in neutral, only when in gear. Anyways, How hard is it going to be to spray some grease / lube in there and does anyone have any suggestions?

 

Yep I just tested going through the gears with the car off and the clutch doesn't squeak. I hope its not something thats going to be hard to fix.

I think I'm going to go down to my local pep boys / autozone and pick up a jack in case I have to get under the car.

 

Hmm it didn't happen when I drove it out today. It happens when the engine is warmer perhaps. Ill let you guys know how it develops. I actually think my moms mechanic is trying to rip us off because everytime we take the car in for something, they magically find something else new that needs to be fixed within a 2 week period.

Going to try to find another shop if the clutch still squeaks.

 

If the clutch doesn't slip (i.e., the engine revs but the car doesn't move when you accelerate), ignore it. Or you can try some silicone spray on any linkages you find under the dash and down below. Probably not worth the effort.
