Yea mine does. My car has an A4 to M6 swap. I often wonder if I got the MC rod out of alignment.
But remembering back to the old days I used to take the clutch pedal out of the older 2nd gens and grease the plastic pivot bushings. That would solve the problem. Of course back then there was not as much wiring and stuff in the way, making the job much easier.

When my clutch pedal started squeeking I had to replace my master cylinder. Look at your master cylinder under the dash and see if there is fluid leaking out of it. If your master has fluid leaking out of it you will need to replace the master and the squeek will go away.

Mine squeaked quite a bit right before the clutch return spring broke - didn't replace it. I have a fairly new master and it will make a slight squeak, but not bad. My Mazda 3 daily driver also squeaks a little as well, but no problems on either.

That's the answer to ALL problems, not just this one in particular...
...back to kindergarden for me!
Ya know, I always wondered wtf that was. My girlfriend's old Firehawk did the same damn thing after we had a new clutch installed, only it was ALWAYS! Talk about f*in annoying!
