I seem to have a noise coming from a spring on the back side of the brake pedal. This spring looks like it helps bring the brake pedal back up to the top when the brake pedal is released. My question is, has anyone here had the same problem, and if so, can you just remove the spring? Or will removing the spring cause the brakes to not fully release? If I can't remove the spring, is there a way to stop the noise other than turning on the radio? Car is a 6 speed if that makes any difference in the brake pedal... I doubt it. Thanks.

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

what kind of noise and when does its do it when depressing or releasing
sounds like a spring being stretched, and happens when depressing the brake pedal. Also, I have now been told not to remove the spring, but to put some grease on it.
grease the conact points and make sure the spring is seated on both ends if it was shifted to oen side it could make some goofy noises
