martin_g34 06-06-2002, 03:32 PM My clutch pedal is making a creaking noise that's annoying the shit out of me. The clutch works perfectly fine, but when I release it, it creaks. I drowned the back of the pedal, where the cable hooks up with the pedal, with WD40 and it didn't help at all. Any ideas of what else I could try. The car only has 47K miles, so I realy don't think that I need to replace my clutch cable. TIA Martin 99SENTRASER 06-06-2002, 03:44 PM dude, just replace the clutch cable. i took mine into the dealership to change my oil. i had the exact same sound that you were talking about. they said it's the clutch cable. they also it might get stiffer after time. martin_g34 06-06-2002, 05:01 PM How many miles did your car have when you replaced it? Damn, I thought that a clutch cable would last a bit longer than 47K. Oh well, looks likeits time for another geek-out. I have my radiator hoses, Gen5 header, and now a clutch cable to do. Martin 99SENTRASER 06-06-2002, 05:40 PM i did mine at 48k. i tried lubricating it...that didn't work. it also helps when you have the hook-up. hehe. just change it bro...the only thing it will hurt is your wallet. (depending on how big it is) jnk5y 06-07-2002, 01:10 AM Mine made noise so i covered it in wd40 and the next day the clutch cable went snap. So i'd replace it if i were you. cossieturbo 06-07-2002, 01:23 AM yup, clutch cable. My original one made noise only after about 10,000 miles. My new one has been quiet for a lot longer. I better find some wood to start knocking on. :rolleyes: Cossie luminus 06-07-2002, 02:07 AM Don't forget the clutch pedal spring! I had some pretty annoying noises come out of the spring. They disappeared once I lubed that spring up well. I actually have a new one that I was going to put in some time, hopefully it won't be that difficult. Aaron | ||
