Clutch Pedal Noisy

[No_worries]

My clutch pedal will give off a 'squeaky' sound whenever I press it. The sound is more obvious especially if I half clutch and clutch in again, i.e whenever I am stuck in a jam.

 

Since mine is a hydraulic clutch, I checked the fluid level and there is no leak or whatsoever. Besides this problem, the clutch still feels the same and gear engagement is still okie.

 

ANyone had this problem before?

where's the sound coming from? From the clutch pedal or from the engine compartment? If it's the formal, use WD40 above the clutch pedal. You might be able to see some springs thats holding onto the pedal itself. Spray there. If it's the latter, then I'm not sure if WD40 will work. Actually if you apply grease to it, also can. More lasting.

Your car won't happen to be a Scubby TS?

 

I have the same problem, it's the spring just above my pedal. Spraying WD40 is only a temp solution. Grease might last longer but it'll come back. I've not found a great solution yet.

Change the pump then. But thats if you really cannot tahan the sound. But I'ld think it's serviceable. Just ask your regular mech to pump grease into it. Or they might think it's easier to use silicon spray...

The clutch pedal arm has a nylon bushing/spacer between the bracket and arm. Over time

 

the nylon wears out and the clutch pedal creaks. Also the cable end can make a chafing

 

noise when you press the pedal if it is dry. Some grease can help that....

[Crasher]

Any way I can diy? I have a can of silicon spray sitting around somewhere...

[No_worries]

I didn't know the clutch pedal arm has a nylon bushing/spacer between the bracket and arm. Reason being my ride is using a hydraulic clutch. I guess I will ask my mechanic to check it out for me the next time I go for oil change.

 

My ride is more than 2 years old already.

If Under Warrantly....Drive Back to Workshop Better....

just point and spray lor.

There is 2 pumps. Not 100% sure but usually the one holding onto the clutch pedal itself is usually mechanical. So grease or silicon will help if used at the right place.

sorry what about acc pedal that has noise?

[Enotsol]

All pedals involves moving joints... so it's always good to lube them once in a while or when you happen to be doing cleaning or washing.

[Kianbeng]

Only noise? Sound from pedal or engine side? Use WD40 should help also.

 

But does it feels jammed? ie, press liao doesn't come up? Your RPM stays even when you lift up your acc pedal?

 

Usually the acc pedal is connected to a cable which has a spring to the end of it. Quite seldom got noise unlike the clutch which has a pump. The acc pedal most of the time is because of the cable being jammed.

The noise is coming from the driver's cabin, very clear. But interestingly, when it is warm and hot outside, the sound is gone, I didn't hear it today.

I do get the squeaky sound when raining, cos the sole of my shoes got wet, and the sound come when the wet sole rubbing on the clutch pedal.

 

I wouldn't use WD40 at that area cos there are some rubber component there, and WD40 will deteriorate rubber. Use silicon spray instead, they are rubber friendly.

Hi, I am also having squeaky noises with my gear box but it is between the stick and the box. It is like moving the stick left and right... without shifting the gears, there is faint squeaky noises coming from the gear box.

 

Anyone knows what could be the problem? Lack of lubrication too?

 

Thanks

[No_worries]

I have this problem too. It is like you move the gear level left to right with or without clutching in, there will be a squeaky sound. My mechanic told me it is normal and I don't worry about it.

 

Btw my ride is a Kimchi Accent.

You're right in your description. It just that I can't stand hearing squeaky noises from somewhere in my car. It does get on my nerves... making me paranoid at times...

 

My ride is a 307 and the noise only started recently. See if I can ask my mechanic to put some grease to rid the noise.
