My clutch pedal started squeaking a few weeks ago. It sounds like it is coming from the master cylinder, and lubing the rod under the dash with lithium grease stops the squeaking for a few days, but it comes right back.

Any thoughts on what I can do to make it go away for real? It sounds awful, and makes the pedal feel very not-smooth.

Use a better grease. Bearing grease, moly if possible. Lithium is light duty.

Lithium grease is for locks, and older ratchets.... I wouldn't use it an Matco 88 or SO 72, or SO Dual 80. But the older coarse teeth ones.

I concur with rleete. use a heavy duty grease. I had to grease mine.

I used some bearing grease and it didn't fix it at all. The fluid is starting to get kind of old, so I'm going to bleed it out and see if that makes a difference sometime in the next couple weeks if I get a few minutes.
