I drove in to work today and noticed the clutch was making a squeaking/groaning noise as I pushed in the pedal. I hear and feel it in the cab on the clutch pedal, no odd noise from the transmission. In neutral with the engine off it still made the noise and you can feel it in the shifter ****. I'm at work now so can't check it out until later. Anybody else have this happen? It's a 2001 with the 3.9 and a 5speed NV3500. 104,000 miles on it and no clutch or trans problems until now.

I appreciate any help.

mine does that also, its just that the clutch lines/pedals/all moving parts need to be oiled/lubed up... as long as your tranny isn't making bad noises mechanically you will be fine, but pedal sqeekage isn't anything to go to the dealer about if thats what you are wondering...

 

that wasn't pedal squeakage in the vid it ended up being my slave cylinder and to replace that you also have to replace the master cylinder and believe me it was one hell of a bitch to do

 

Yeah I will spray it with WD 40 or try to lube the moving parts with bearing grease or something when I get it home. I thought that might be it. I could even feel the resistance as I pushed in and let out on the pedal. It's not the throwout bearing noise or anything, just from the pedal assembly.

Thanks for the help.

 

well thats what i thought too and i could feel the resistance in the pedal. does it get worse once it gets warmed up or you have been driving more? and not start right when you start driving?
