    My clutch pedal is squeaking a bit, what kind of lubricant should be used and where should it be applied?

    I have heard that white lithium grease works well...

    that should work, but check your clutch fluid as well

    The fluid level is fine, is there anything else to check?

    Its not squeaking now...so I guess I need to wait for the squeak again so I can find out where its coming from.
     
  9. Mine squeaks like a bi@tch! Hate it, WD-40 did a 2min fix. :(

    nicad Yes I am a troll

    WD40 is not a lubricant.
     
  11. Mine squeaks at the release fork and slave cylinder pin.I think its due to water coming trough the hood scoop/ intercooler. i have lubed it but the noise comes back in about a week..

    I think it was originally designed as a plastic cleaner.

    WD-40 is the trademark name of a water-displacing spray widely available in a variety of retail outlets. Developed in 1953 by [Anthony Byatt], founder of the Rocket Chemical Company, San Diego, California. It was originally designed to repel water and prevent corrosion,[1] and later was found to have numerous household uses.

    WD-40 stands for "Water Displacer - 40th Attempt".

    I thought WD-40 was water based...

    you thought incorrectly
     
  17. Woo!you tell'em. So don't use WD-40... what then, grease?

    it's just my pedal that squeaks, the spring actually squeaks. Think im gonna clean the spring, see what happens, then add grease if the noise persists.
