Creaking clutch pedal [Euro]

Not sure how to get it in the hole though. The gap is about 3-4mm only.

Sorry dude, I meant for lubing the shaft itself, not actually going through the firewall, I combo'd the both, but the silicon spray has been a life saver so far..

Hey Aaron, I know your gonna read this reply

How long does the extension need to be to get to the plugs? or how long is the drop in?

The rod doesn't touch any parts inside the master cylinder, so I don't think there is a need to lube it. I didn't lube my rod (man that sounds bad) and the creak still went away.

I use a 20 cm extension. The longer the better because you don't want to rub the ratchet on your rocker cover and scratch it. I bought a Superworksgold extension from Supercheap. Pretty good and even has a grip part so that you can turn it by hand even with a bit of grease on it.

Awesome, thanks mate,

p.s I used to work at Supercheap and had some SuperGold parts.. then I worked at Bunnings and I upgraded everything to Sidchrome

Now I work at a bank and have soft hands like a poof.

No problem. I find that if I drive daily, the creak goes away for a few months. But if I leave the car unused for a month, the creak comes back. Makes sense since everytime you press the clutch pedal, you are redistributing the silicone lube on the seal.

Mines the other way. If i drive heaps, its more obvious. If i dont drive in a couple days, then its gone for a while.

I'll do the silicone spray too but I'll have to lose some of my beer belly first

Then you need more lubing. I did mine by pressing the clutch pedal down as far as I can by hand, then spraying the silicone in using an extension nozzle into the gap. After that, pump the pedal a few times to distribute the lube.

as said above, When I did mine, I drowned the living hell out of it, all the way inside and around..

your just not lubricating enough ! :P lmao man i had to say it lol.. just sounds so wrong lmao

[rayd]

just had to add - i had this issue , and two days ago bought myself some silicone spray - 3 sprays and it the problem is completely gone! not fussed if it comes back - the can only cost $10

amazing stuff!

I'm honestly suprised not many people know about silicone spray, the stuff can be used anywhere you use wd40! But with less dirt and dust being attracted and works longer, also another great dry lube that many peeps don't know about is graphite powder.. For a dry lube it's awesome!

Hi guys had a humming noise in my tyre so i brought it in on thursday to get it checked out. No creaking clutch.

Got car back still had humming noise... burswood honda said nothing they can do about it as it was because of uneven trye wearing. When driving the car had creaking clutch!!!

Brought car back on friday they lubed it up. no creaking clutch BUT.... now the car is using alot of fuel 11L/100km on the computer, it is slow in going past 2000rpm (Unresponsive) car feels sluggish where as this morning when i brought it in it was damn responsive! wonder what they did to my car. everytime i get it back a new problem appears! NOT HAPPY

any one know of a common problem why the car is sluggish and consumes so much fuel.Before i got 8.2 and sometimes 7.6l/100km fuel economy. i have a manual and put in a full tank of BP ultimate 98ron. i wonder if they syphoned out my petrol...... and put crappy shit back in......
