Default Clutch noise

Stock clutch, car is still new but the other day I ran out to grab gas and noticed the clutch was making a noticeable squeaking sound when I pressed it in, every time I used it. The noise sounded similar to a door squeaking open. Other than that nothing else seemed to be wrong, it was engaging/disengaging fine, no jolt, no grinding, easy to shift; everything else was normal.

When I pulled into the gas station I opened the door and pushed in on the clutch a couple times to try and pin point the noise and I realized it was coming from outside the car. I did some research and found it to be normal but I just wanted to see what you guys think...

A lot of people have had that problem. Search brings a lot of results though. Here is a link to where a temporary fix is: https://www.scionlife.com/forums/sho...+squeak&page=2

Majority of the TC's have this problem. There's a fix for it in the DIY section which i'll be doing cause its starting to annoy me. lol It seems for most, it has worked without any problems.

The issue is the clutch fork, had the same problem in my tc, brought it to the dealership but they could never hear the sound because it wouldnt happen all the time. Go b uy some high temp lithium grease and grease up the clutch fork. i followed this diy....http://clubsciontc.com/forums/diy-in...ueak-fix-9916/
