Default Squeaky Clutch

so i've noticed recently usually in the morning or cold starts, when the clutch is pushed in there is a noticable continuous squeak sound, but once the car is driven for a while and is at a good temp the sound is gone, anyone ever had this issue?

Could just be the fingers on the pressure plate, clutch pedal bush, the fork that holds the release bearing, if it's not slipping or causing problems don't worry

yeah i was thinking it had something to do with the trust bearing, due to my old car having a busted bearing and was making a similar sound, but its not slipping so i guess its still ok for now

If it is the release bearing and it starts causing problems you will need to replace. It will start making a lot more noise when it needs to be done.

Mine used to croak like a frog on cold winter mornings and like yours went away when the car warmed up, it did it for about 3yrs then seemed to stop, I kind of miss the sound but I'm pretty sure it was just in the pedal area.

To rull out clutch pedal squeezing spray some wd40 onto the clutch pivot point, there's normally a brass bearing there that makes noise
