So i had my clutch replaced about 3000 miles ago and receantly it started to make a squeaking noise only when the clutch is engaged. I can make the noise stop if i put my foot on the clutch and push it in slightly. Any ideas?

The TB on these cars continues to touch the pressure plate with the clutch out. I had to replace mine this past winter and added a return spring on the fork to pull the TB off the plate. Works great and the TB will last that much longer.
sorry it took so long to reply back i was extreamly bust lately.
anyway i just had the clutch replaced 3k miles ago, is there any way to do it without taking anything apart?

Not really. You might be able to get some grease up on the T/O bearing through the side opening where the release fork and cable connect. But it is doubtful it will be effective. You need to drop the transmission and simply replace the bearing before it gets bad enough to start wearing the pressure plate release fingers and you have to replace everything.
i sprayed mine with white lithium grease and its been quiet for about 4k miles now
Give it a try, as long as the bearing is just dry then the grease should work, if its siezed though, then its replacement time.
