It sounds like its 100 years old, clutch has been changed out once already and my car doesnt have that many miles.

It sounds like its coming from inside the cabin but Im not sure, it only happens when you press the clutch in every time.

Any ideas? Ive tried to wd40 stuff inside the car

try something else, like a lithium grease. wd 40 is for water displacement mainly.

Yeah mine does this too. I think it has to do with the clutch master cylinder rod.

this was discussed in a prior thread...i think every 5spd SC does this along with the chirping sound..ive taken it mannnnyyyyyy times to get greased with white lithium grease and it just comes back. nothing to worry about.

It is the spring behind the clutch pedal, change it, its like 3 bux. The new ones dont creak.

I get this too, but I have a heavy duty exedy clutch
It sounds like its coming from the exterior of the vehicle, and ONLY when the clutch is depressed.

Do you have a part # for this?

It sounds like to me it's coming from inside the car and yes I thought it was the spring too

It's not that I was worried anything was wrong guys, the sound is annoying and sounds like my car is a POS so I need it gone

If the sound is coming from the exterior it might be the clutch slave cylinder although nothing may be wrong with it. When you depress the clutch pedal the slave cylinder rod pushes on the slave cylinder piston. The seal around the piston wipes all the hydraulic fluid from the walls of slave cylinder as it moves with the piston.

The other moving parts like the clutch fork can make noise if they aren't lubed.

I have the same issue even after putting in my spec clutch...I like to think it just gives her character

I was driving today without some parts installed over the shifter and I could see the ground.
I believe the sound is coming from there where the shifter linkage and driveshaft are

what moves when you press in the clutch around there?

The clutch slave cylinder and release bearing

so it sounds like that is bad on my car right? my clutch has already been replaced once but they may have reused that stuff for some dumb reason.

I also have a rattling sound when I bog my car at low rpms in 1st gear coming from the same area. Im thinking maybe that cat is rattling but im not sure

My car has too many noises to figure out, it's in really good shape but the noises are embarassing.
