Default Clutch pedal squeak

Hi, I'm new to the forums, and ive tried searching for a solution but could not find it.

My problem is one that just occured recently... Everytime I take my foot off the clutch pedal now there is a slight squeak sound that's very audible. You cant really hear the sound until you actually take you're foot off the pedal, the release pressure is very light... pressing and depressing the clutch in .25 inches will create the sound. Before I was able to hear a click when I pressed the clutch slightly, I can still hear that click, however it is now followed with a very annoying squeak. Are there any solution's to this problem that I can do, or is it covered under warranty?

Oh yah, off the topic, but my sunroof or hatch is rattling like hell.. I have searched the forums and stuff, and I know theres a TSB and all. I went to the toyota/scion dealer and I told them that my car was rattling in the roof/hatch area (i did not mention the tsb) They claimed they fixed it, but it's still apparently there. I asked the technician who I took along for a brief ride what exactly he did and he said he insulated something. I asked him if this was a common problem and he said he didn't know and said he never worked with Scion's before. Folsom Lake Toyota service sucks...

squeeks on the inside of the car, or in the engine bay?

inside, could just need some wd-40 on the actual pedal assembly

outside-could be a throw out bearing, bad linkage ect...

but with a hydro clutch it shouldnt be squeeking too much...cable clutches are more prone to that. more info please!

the actual pedal itself is squeaking... it isn't too bad but it's very noticible when the radio is off and such. Pressing the pedal in ever-so-slightly creates an audible click sound... that click sound is now plagued with an acute squeak. Where exactly would I w-d40 it?

thanks

Yeah my gas pedal used to make a squeaking sound but it went away after a while. You just gotta break it all in.
