I know I know... this topic has been beaten over and over. BUT... Mine is still squeeking, and it is kinda making me nervous. I don't want this thing to take a **** on me when I'm on a trip or something. My warranty is up, so any damage would be out of my pocket.

My car has 44k miles on it, I bought it last week so I don't know how long it's been squeeking for... Will the lithium grease fix it, or does it just get rid of the noise? I mean, is this squeek a problem, and is it going to cause damage soon? What does the "Grease" fix entail?

Thanks in advance!

you can just spray the grease on it, it will hold up for a while it will take care of the noise as well.

this is a VERY common problem.

Me to guyz!!!
I just got the stage 1 SPEC installed . and i hear a constant tweaking sound coming possibly from the throw out bearing that came with the SPEC kit. Will that squeking end once the clutch is broken in? If not is it possible to replave the SPEC throw out bearing with the Stock OEM Throw out bearing? Or would that just eliminate the performance from the clutch?????????
