    In the morning when I first start driving my clutch as started squeeking, it goes away after maybe 10-15 minutes, my truck has 12k miles, I've seen some issues on here with clutches on the 2012+ 4 cylinders, so I'm wondering is my clutch going out? I haven't noticed any slipping but I'm still a little worried

    the white lithium grease wore off yesterday and I just crawled under there and re sprayed it took me 2 minutes. People say use grease as an alternative but couldn't get the grease in the right spot the spray was easier.

    Mines squeaks behind the clutch pedal and in the slave cylinder shaft boot. I find that lithium spray grease doesn't last too long. It also isn't rated for automotive use. I have switched to using Mobile 1 synthetic grease which is properly rated. The only problem is its hard to get in tight spots. So i use a fast food chop stick to apply. It's messy as hell, but it gets the job done. In addition, when I went to respray the lithium grease in the slave cylinder boot, as I opened the dust boot, water came leaking out. Not sure if its from normal condensation cause of the environment or from the grease, but I am not taking any chances.
