Default Squeaky Clutch Pedal

In January I had my clutch, flywheel, and master cylinder replaced on my AP1. After driving getting it back, the clutch pedal squeaked a good bit and I took it back to the shop. They replaced the slave cylinder and it was fine but it started squeaking and sticking at the bottom. I go to college so I haven't had the time to drive the car back home to show take it to my mechanic. I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions as to why it's squeaking.

In short:
Replaced clutch, slave cylinder, master clutch cylinder, and flywheel. Now clutch pedal sometimes sticks and squeaks.

At times the pedal is perfectly fine and is very smooth but then it gets rough, sticky, and squeaks.

Thoughts?

Oscar

perhaps the slave was not properly greased. https://www.s2ki.com/s2000/topic/370...-clutch-pedal/

How do you "properly" pack it with grease? I can probably do this myself, then.

you just grease the inside of the bearing so it lubricated it where it slides on the transmission shaft. You have to do this when the trans is remoed

pull the clutch fork out and get a small paint brush and apply grease to the splines...
