Hey everyone,

I'm a proud new owner of a 2005 Sebring Silver S2000. I love it to death and it puts a huge smile on my face everything I look at it or drive it. It's completely bone stock so I have some nice plans for it in the short future.

However, I have been experiencing a problem. My gas pedal squeeks when I release it at times. Usually, it's more evident when I am rev-match downshifting. Does anyone know what the problem could be?

Thanks!

 

Bump!

 

Just bought an 04 (had a 01 for 5 years, that didnt sqeak) my 04 is in reallly ncie condition, but gas pedal squeaks as well. not sure if its and ap2 thing or not, mine has 49k on it. Not sure if this helps-

 

Im sure it's lack of lubrication. Im sure every car lubricates little differently and some cars will just start to squeak earlier than the others. Try couple sprays with WD-40. Dont soak it but little spray and see if sound goes away. Let me know how that goes. I'd like to know also

 

I just I would just have to spray underneath where the gas pedal is?

 

not ON the pedal, but shaft/bar/joint etc

 

How do I access those parts? Sorry, I sound like a noob! But the noise has been driving me insane!

 

I am also getting this squeak when I let of the gas after a blip. I'm not sure I want to use WD40 as it might remove any lubricant that is still on there and make its application into a regular thing....

 

Under the dash at the back of the footwell you'll see a rod that extends from the accelerator pedal upwards. You'll see some connections and pivot points/joints/springs, etc. Try lubricating the pivot point with silicone spray lubricant and see if that solves the squeak.

 

Yup mine squeaks too whenever I rev match.
