mrdeep2001 Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 Whenever I push my clutch pedal in, i hear a squeaking noise, similar to the noise i heard when my clutch cable was on its way out. I replaced the cable less than 6 mos. ago with an OEM cable from Subaru. Anyone have ideas? car is a '92 Subaru Loyale FWD non-turbo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott F Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 After some deep thought, perhaps it is the pivot that needs lube or new bushings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Durania Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 I replaced mine last week and had a squeaky pedal as well. I had a boogered out hole on the pedal and the aluminum clamp that holds it that is a big "C" was bent almost off. Check and make sure its routed right and that your hardware is in good shape.

mrdeep2001 Posted July 12, 2007 Author Share Posted July 12, 2007 regarding the pivot, do you mean the part where the end of the clutch cable goes through? and also which bushings should i be looking at? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mgoodman Posted October 3, 2009 Share Posted October 3, 2009 I have a 'creaky' clutch pedal - you can feel the friction as you push the pedal in. I assumed the cable needed some lube, but after lubing the snot out of it, there's been absolutely no improvement. I'm wondering if is the pivot bushings. Could they be responsible for a hard, creaky feeling pedal? -1999 Legacy Brighton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Replacement may be needed as well. GD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
