It sounds like the linkages just need to be lubricated a bit.

Coverage and how to read this overview

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.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I notice that when I shift, I can hear a squeaking. I don't know if it's actually the shifter or the linkages, but I figure I'll ask here before I start tearing things apart. Any ideas? Car only has 14,700 miles on it. - Anthony

POST 2Original post

put 14,700 MORE miles on it and see if the problem still exsists

POST 3Original post

Could it be the clutch assist spring mechanism?

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Quotes source post: 6750466

It doesn't do it when I depress the clutch, only when I move the shifter...

POST 5Original post

I would check under the console... last thing you need is a broken link and be stranded somewhere.... is it stock?

POST 6 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Quotes source post: 6754066

Yes, it's completely stock. It sounds like the linkages just need to be lubricated a bit. How do I remove the center console to look at the linkages?

POST 7Original post

POST 8 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Quotes source post: 6750466

Ok, can you elaborate more on this? I notice that right when I start to depress the clutch I hear a squeak. Also, the shifter only squeaks when you move it forward, not backwards. So it will squeak going into 1st gear but not second. Any ideas?

POST 9Original post

Crawl under the steering wheel and look at the top of the clutch lever. Spray anything that looks like it squeaks. It's really easy to see what's squeaking once you're under there, I had to do it too. Can't help on the linkages though.

if you do this put painters tape over the safety brake to protect it from scratching

hahahaha.... yes, I always forget that very important detail.
