Brand new 10 XFE cobalt manual clutch is noisy

[bigmarky]

so i bought a new xfe 5spd manual cobalt a few months back

from the very start the hydraulic clutch creeks and squeeks on press/depress

they've replaced the pedal 2x, regreased it, and it still comes back every morning when i drive it

they are ignoring the issue now, but im still making it apparent to them

here's a utube video i made of the noise
anyone else had this problem?

me too got my 2010 cobalt XFE and its been squeeking every time i hit the clutch , i think it has something to do with it being a plastic clutch pedal. but other than that havent been able to look at it . i work nights and laitly its only been dark out when im awake.
what helps me is just having the radio on lol it really does i forgot about it untill i read your post

More lube.....

But seriously though, whine about it till they fix it.

mine does the same thing. but it seems to get quieter the more miles i put on it. the other problem i have is that when i shift going from first to second the shift knob makes a squeaking noise

i recently got a used 10 xfe and my clutch does the same but really only when i granny shift. other then that i am loving the car so far and cant wiat till i get same parts in and do a little playing with it

I believe it's probably a plastic bushing in the pedal. Plastic changes with weather temp, so sometimes it will squeak, sometimes it won't. And you're right. it IS annoying.

so has anyone gotten a dealer to fix this issue?

 

[keithmcd901]

no... but with my car the issues has resolved itself... the noise wnt away after a few thousand miles

this my friend is bullshit. it is not operating the way the manufacturer intended. you complain they must fix it. they say no, tell them you want the number to their regional warranty manager. also in some states the lemon law is in affect if it's serviced for the same problem 3 times. look into your local lemon laws and see if you are within the parameters
