ok so as iwas pulling up my stret tonight, when my clutch was fully pressed to the floor it made a semi-loud screeching noise. so i am now not driving the car at all as i am afriad to @!#$ something up. it still shifted just fine up my street and there was no noise at all when the clutch was engaged. anybody heard of this before? anyways first thing monday morning the car is going to the dealership for the 3rd seperate problem on the car to be fixed under warrenty
but i was just wondering on your guys input
i am sut going to pour some fluid in there and hopefully it drive to dealership with no problem.
Does it make any noise when the clutch is not fully depressed. Or it is just noise only when the clutch is fully disengaged?
Clutch problems are really simple you just have to figure out whats moving and whats not and go from there. Anyways I need more info before I can help you out more.

no no noise unless clutch is pressed full to the floor if it is half way there is no noise at all. some peopple are saying throwout bearing. but i do not know.
Well if the clutch is fully disengaged, and it only makes the sound then it is pretty much the throw out bearing.

actually since the fluid level is low i added some dot 3 brake fluid and the noise is completely gone i drove it for a while and it was fine, but there is till a laek somewhere so its going in tomorrow ot get fixed it looks like its on the hose from what i could tell today. everybody was saying it was the TO bearing tho.

If the to bearing was bad, it would make noise right when it hits the diaphram of the cover. So once the pedal is pushed an inch down it would make a noise.
ok i found out what is wrond but it is going to take 3 days to fix since they dont have the part.
they said it is the clutch master cylinder.
they said the car is drivable until wensday when they get the part, andi ahve bene driving it and it is @!#$ up. they took the master cylinder apart and put it back on now my clutch feels even more fuked up that before i took in into the dealer. so i hope whatever they do to it on wensday to fix it solves this problem, because this has been one big headache.
I had a brand new master cylinder go out after 6 months. The hose was cracked. Glad I bought genuine GM since they replaced it no cost. Still under 12 months / 12 thousand miles. When I got the new one it was an upgraded part and have had no issues since. (about 35000 miles).
