T-5 Question

I figured i ask all you third gen guys who have T-5's. The first time i put the clutch in to start the car everything is fine. When i let the clutch out to let the car warm up evertything is fine. However if i push is the clutch i hear this rattling and then when i shift into gear i hear a sqeaking noise. This only happens the first two or three times i shift into gear then it goes away untill the car sits for hours. It also never happens when i let i car warm up for 5 minutes. I cant figure it out, one of my friends said his third gen has done it for years. Any Ideas?

Its most likely your relese bearing. It needs to be cleaned and lubed with PROPER graphite throwout bearing lube. NOT just chassy grease 'cause that hardens and when warm the bearing will either sqeek, make clicking sounds, or right down stick and make your pedal feel gittery. When cold all will always be well. I had this problem, the only way it went away was with me polishing the bearing sleve on the tranny with emery cloth to get rid of the high-spots, cleaning the bearing and using lube that comes with new luk clutch kits and/or others. You just need to make sure that is what its for.
