Default Clutch Squeal

Hello everyone. I was wondering if anyone has had this problem. I have a 2004 SVT Cobra with 44,000 miles on it. I can hear this little irritating squeal when I start in first gear when it's cold. Only lasts a few minutes then it just disappears. It sounds as if something is slipping. Shifts just fine no problems there. It's the original clutch an has not been adjusted at all. Any feedback will be appreciated.

def the throwout bearing. If you have the cash, replace the clutch, flywheel, tb, and pilot bearing while you're in there

Default Thank You!

Well guys, I want to tell you how much I appreciate all your input. I am taking the car up on monday to have a new clutch, a shiny new flywheel, throw out bearing, pilot bearing and rear main seal installed and the thing will hold 800hp. Than you again
