I am working with my local dealer to get it repaired. Will keep you all posted on my progress.

A TSB came out to replace the TOB, but only covered for 36k miles. Might want to look into getting that new TOB P/N (SU003-07349) installed rather than the old P/N (SU003-00802)

Any updates on this? I started getting the same sound, both pushing and releasing the pedal.

I had the same symptoms. You need to get grease (I used Lucas Oil Red N Tacky) around where the clutch fork pivot ball is. It's called the release fork support in the photo here. http://s315.photobucket.com/user/cam...lutch.jpg.html I used this photo to get a feel for the area and orientation of the clutch fork. You will need to pull the boot around the shift fork up to be able to access this area. You can also pull the top of the clutch fork toward the front of the car to gain a little bit of room. I used a paintbrush to get the grease worked around the area.

I let the grease sit for a few minutes then pumped the clutch pedal for about 20-30 seconds and the creak/squeak was gone.

It's not the same squeak. I've had the clutch pivot squeak issue before and fixed it already with a NGLI No.2 EP Red Grease.
This other one is heard entirely inside the cabin. For this sound, you wouldn't hear it if you're outside and the doors are closed and someone is pumping the clutch.

Anyway, I figured it out already. It's the clutch master cylinder, the internal push-rod/plunger rubbing against the inner bore as it's too dry. As per the service manual, re-grease with SILICONE GREASE G-40M or equivalent. DO NOT USE THE SPRAY SILICONE LUBRICANT, IT WILL NOT LAST.

Use a toothpick or something thin with grease on the tip, push the clutch in all the way, and go ahead and grease the inside of the CMC.

So 2 years ago I had to take my car in to get the TOB, pressure plates, etc. replaced due to this squeak...that stopped the squeak for 2 years and a couple of days ago it started again. This time it was squeaking only when I pressed on the clutch and not when releasing it. I figured it had to be the clutch fork. So I went outside, removed the rubber boot that's on top of the transmission and sprayed a generous amount of white lithium grease inside on the pivot point...squeak is gone now. We'll see for how long that lasts.

Seems I'm having this issue. Gonna have to take it to a dealer and hope they fix it.

Try what I did above if you are out of warranty. If you are still under warranty, by all means take it to them.

Zoid 10-09-2017 05:50 PM

Yeah I got the car in May and it's a MY2015 and I'm nearing 32,500 miles, so I think I'm in warranty?

Do you have a diagram or picture of the place that should be greased? I just wanna have an idea where to look before I climb under the car:bonk:

I lubed the clutch fork pivots & TOB as best I could using HTB grease through fork/boot next to slave using a flexible plastic paddle & my fingers. I did this a few months ago, noise is gone & actuation is far smoother . . . for now.

YandereValkyrie 06-17-2018 04:53 PM

I just started hearing the whirr today, the clutch has been a bit squeaky for a awhile, I figured it was normal.. Just under 70,000km, taking it in tomorrow to see if they'll cover it under warranty since It has the 5yr/100k and I paid more for the extended coverage.. This bullshit comes up right as I'm in plans to get a second car
