Hey guys if im just sitting there and I put my clutch in...right at the clutch spot it "creaks"...thats what it sounds like, is like an old rocking chair or a door creaking. Its just a momentary thing as the clutch goes in.

My cousin said he thought it might be some bearing? What do you guys think?

btw car is 99accord and has 70,000 miles. never had a clutch replaced or worked on etc

Doesnt sound like a throwout bearing. Just sounds to me like something needs to be greased. Try spraying some lube on the clutch pedal, up where it attaches to the pedal box.

yea i agree doenst sound like a throw out bearing is it a hydrolic clutch or is it a mechanical clutch i dont remeber on those cars?

i think its hydrolic cause its newer, but not 100%

well i know my friends is mechanical on his civic... but who knows my guess is the same as tedds what does it sound like a screetch or like a grinding screetch sound or what?

its such a weird sound the only thing i can use to describe it is a squeak/creak. but not like a mouse squeak or a typical squeaking. its the sound when you are opening a door that needs some WD-40, if you know what i mean. its not a very distinguishable sound, it sucks, cause i can't describe it to anyone. Unless im just missing the adjective..

if its mechancial i would say check the cable... if its hydrolic check the fluid... and grease it all up and lubircate the shit out of everything!

If it were a throwout bearing it would be more of a howl, not a creak.

I agree with bills ^^ post. Just try greasing things up and see what happens. If it doesnt go away, take it to a shop and have them take a look at it.

Best of luck!!!

find out for sure if its mechanic or hydrolic

My Focus has the same noise, never thought anything of it.
