  1. Clutch creaking

    Yeah.. I am glad I did my experiments.. now I know it is inside the assembly that is the issue.. not the outer spring.. it will just be a PM issue. strange design.. but again.. just a matter of finding the right lube.. and the right amount to make it last as long as possible.. Still prefer the...
  2. Clutch creaking

    Now that I have done it once.. I expect that I will have to do it again soon, until I find the right lubricant and the right amount.... but at least it isn't difficult to do. I used an adjustable small window security rod/mini shower curtain rod to hold the pedal.. it really was pretty easy. I...
  3. Clutch creaking

    Yes! Your fix worked like a charm. I used synthetic Brake caliper grease with “ceramic”. I did some experimenting with it while it was apart. The creaking seemed to be plastic on plastic rubbing inside the helper spring tube. That’s why greasing the outside did nothing. But. Once I find a...
  4. Clutch creaking

    I am probably going to figure this out after frustration and anger... and then I will still be pissed off at Ford... I am going to attempt to take this to the dealership... but I am just past the b 2 b warranty.. they did just replace the transmission and give the standard extension for extra...
  5. Manual transmission scraping noise / grinding sound

    So I had my transmission replaced with the new model in April.. ish? So far so good, but I won't know if the grinding has been solved until it drops below 40 degrees for a week or 2.... I too had a burning smell, but it wasn't until I did some mountain driving... I was on a road trip.. and...
  6. Clutch creaking

    I am dealing with the same thing.. possibly.. I can make it creak even when not moving.. doesn't matter the gear.. all that matters is that they are slow movements half way through the range.. so, either on trails, in reverse, or in traffic.... when I have to "ride" the clutch.. I have added...
  7. Manual transmission scraping noise / grinding sound

    I mentioned taking an oil sample right away.. mine is a 2022.. and it is now 2025.. it has been making the noise every winter since 2023... after reading some posts here, asking them to do an oil sample seemed like a smart move. That is when they ditched the automotive tech who said "I...
  8. Manual transmission scraping noise / grinding sound

    Thanks! .. I have been combing owner sites for years, looking for evidence of replacement or a permanent solution. Asking a typical dealership mechanic to rebuild a manual transmission in a country where they may have never worked on one, is asking for trouble, and with the same faulty parts...
  9. Manual transmission scraping noise / grinding sound

    I dropped my 7 speed off at my local Ford dealership last week.. It took them a while to accept my recommendation on the TSB.. but it has been this way for 2 years while I Waited for a better solution than.. put the same parts back in..... Friday, they gave me a loaner and they were ordering a...
