Yeah, it was awful. I used some teflon grease to shut it up. You'll teflon or axle grease on it. Spray won't cut it here. Hasn't made a peep since I did it.

Brave man w/ that S4. I was one of the first 2000 S4 owners. Ditched it after the snails were replaced under warranty.

Just turn the music up. It'll help drown out any rattles that your car might have as well

I had to have my clutch master cylinder replaced to solve the problem. Greasing didn't help.

I had 2 master cylinders replaced and a brand new clutch pedal and as i was leaving fro mgetting the new pedal assembly installed it started squeaking again. the dealership sprayed it and said they would contact me after they heard from the manufacture about if there was anything else they could do to fix it. that was almost 2 weeks ago and still no word.
