Squeaking clutch, from underneath

hi all. 2012 dcsb. My clutch is squeaking and it’s coming from underneath and I’m assuming inside the transmission?

It’s not the pedal for sure. I’ve had the squeaky clutch TSB done and also replaced the master cylinder.

Any ideas? Probably taking it to dealership to get fixed.

 

Try to squirt a little lube on the pivot of the clutch fork where it goes into the bell housing. You might be able to pull the rubber boot back and get a little can of wd40 with a straw in there.

 

Uhh I’m a dummy. Where is this located?

 

At the transmission end of the clutch hydraulic line

 

Follow the guide in this thread to grease the clutch fork

So do I take off the plate with 2 bolts?

 

I should add 2 things. This is the 6sp and only sqeauks when hot. I can not locate the clutch fork.

 

I haven't greased the clutch fork myself but I've seen that thread I posted above and thought it might be helpful, you should post in that thread if you haven't yet since it seems pretty active. A lot of members in there have successfully done it and can probably help you out

 

Thank u. It’s a 5sp tranny. So different.

 

Heard in another thread Mobil 1 gear oil will make it squeak, MT90 will fix it.

 

Kd u talking clutch or tranny?

 

Tranny squeak that sounds like the clutch, if that makes any sense.

I have the 5 speed too and was told it's the same process as with the 6speed, but like I said I haven't tried it myself yet

 

Thanks eon. I don’t know where to find the fork so I can’t grease it.haha. I’m a dummy.

 

No worries, it's not something I'm looking forward to having to do myself. Luckily my squeak comes and goes, it'll be present for a few days then be silent for a few weeks so I don't worry too much about it yet.

 

If you push in the clutch does the sound go away?

 

I think he's talking about a squeak/creak that comes from the clutch fork when you press the clutch, not the input or throwout bearing chirp.

I have the input bearing chirp and it's annoying as hell, but I've gotten pretty used to it

 

Same here. Just was trying to see if I could be helpful

 

who knows, he probably has the bearing chirp too like the rest of us lol. It's a Toyota manual trans curse
