Guess you could say I live in a warmer region (Florida).
I had this issue pop up on me at 19k miles. Took me 3 days to keep taking my car to the dealer because the support tech they kept calling didn't want to open it up until it was a last resort (they sprayed lubricant on the outside area). I believe because they said it happened on a 2014 model and they replaced it but the noise still persisted.
Finally opened it up and they said might as well get a new part in there since it's open. The people there said there were signs of a little bit of rust on the TOB. I got my car back, immediately felt the clutch was "lighter" or easier to push down. Noise went away and haven't heard it since (at 22k miles now).
