Squeaky shifter and clutch

Post by DJ »

For a while now my shifter has made an annoying squeaky sound when I move it sometimes, and it's finally annoyed me enough to do something about it.
Also, my clutch pedal seems to also make a bit of a squeak when you press it in, this isn't a big deal because the only time it is quite enough to hear that is when I have the car off, but I figured that I might as well try and fix both at once.
Any suggestions?

probably the spring on the clutch pedal, just get under there and spray with some lubricant

While searching through past posts I found that someone mentioned taking the console and boot off and putting grease in their. I think I might give this a try. Any other suggestions or if you know if that's a good idea?
