Yesterday I installed my quadrant and firewall adjuster. Today when I was just pushing the clutch in with the car turned off, I noticed that there was a creak/squeak during the motion of pushing the pedal in and out. It is coming from the transmission where the cable is attached.

Anyone have any ideas?

Like that?

Similiar to that. I noticed that it only does it when it has been sitting. I drove it and turned it off then tried it and the car didn't make a noise. It is very humid around here lately so maybe that could cause something.

Hmmm.. I notice that with my passenger window.. when it's human it doesnt make funny noises but when its chilly, forget about it. Hm. Anyone else got ideas?

There is a spherical bushing in there that lets the cable rotate freely so it doesnt get caught up/cut up on the arm behind the dust shield. It could possibly be worn/dried out and squeak a tiny amount. If anything its probably your pressure plate fingers making a noise as you push down on it.

It could be the throw-out bearing possib. but Did you replace the clutch cable or not and if its stock how many miles it may be getting gummed up from the age. There are a few different things..

Could be, but normally it doesnt make a whole lot of noise especially with the car off. Maybe if the pressure plate fingers were digging in or something.

The car has 12k miles. I highly doubt that anything is worn out. It goes away once it has been used driving so I think it may just be the humidity sitting when the car is off.

I think it's the clutch cable.. something's weird there. At least, that's why mine does that stupid noise.. it's embarassing.
