its the clutch fork bushing (inside the bell housing).

if you find your slave unit, the metal piece it pushes is the fork, you may be able to get some white lithium in there if you re carefull....i have this swueeking but have not had time to "grease it"

useually goes away after the car get warm

I've had the same problem for two years. It comes and goes, mostly after it rains is when you can really hear it. Two different stealerships greased it up with litium but it only last a few months. I just learned to deal with it but thanks to MyBlue I'll probably start greasing it myself. Thanks MyBlue!!!
