Clutch pedal squeak

The weather is cooling off here, and a couple of days ago I noticed a (very annoying) clutch pedal squeak. I've heard these in other people's cars when I was a kid and always thought, "how can you stand that?!" Now I've got one, and I can't stand it!

I removed the clutch spring a while ago, and it didn't make any noise then.

Here is a video demonstrating the issue. It was difficult to film (sorry).



I tried shooting a bit of lithium grease at the joints and working it in, but that didn't help (yet anyway--maybe it will work its way in).

From the number of squeaky clutches that I've heard, I kind of suspected that it was more difficult than just greasing an exposed joint.

Should I take it to the dealer? It's not due for service for... quite a while. I guess I don't drive this pony enough (commute is too short--first world problems?).

Thanks!

I had a squeak too, but more of a bird chirp sound. I fixed mine yesterday by oiling the cable attached to the side of the pedal about half way up on the driver's door side of the pedal. It's like a ball and socket attachment, trying lubing that. Mine immediately went away.

What is the other end of the cable attached to? My clutch pedal does not have a cable attached to it.
