I hope it does not lead to any failures,
I read up on this thread, but there does not seem to be any solution, other than getting your clutch replaced (Or in your case, the part replaced).

That's is pretty much exactly what happened to mine. Squeaky clutch pedal - they've tried fixing it by replacing the clutch master cylinder but it it obviously didn't help at all. It got worse to the point that it would sound horrible when coming to a stop after driving at high RPM.
Replacing the release bearing AND the sleeve was the solution, but as mentioned I got a whole new clutch out of the deal.
This is the sleeve if I'm not mistaken:
"
RETAINER-BEARING " 30099AA040
They've added some lithium grease to it to hopefully prevent the same from happening again.
