clutch ?

My car has been making a growling noise when I push the clutch peddle in and it becomes louder when the peddle is only half way in, when the car is turned off,and I push the clutch in it will make a squeaking sound. What should I look to be replacing ?

Hey Aaron, all that clutch stuff is less than one year old. It made the same noise on me for awhile then went a way. I think it made be something heat related. I was never able to find the source of the noise. When you own a 300rwhp fb they are allowed to make a little noise. Think of it as a WAR CRY!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm so lucky there is a nice stereo and sub. If it weren't for those I would never stop questioning every single sound I hear As for the sound going away it does that too, once I drive about 10-20 miles the sound goes away completely, seems to like to happen more often when the drivetrain is not at operating temp.

Well as long as the clutch is strong I'm going to leave it at that.
