I have noticed that the clutch pedal on my 99 250 SD is squeaking pretty bad. I have read on the forum that it "may" be the clutch pedal linkage bushings. I was wondering if anyone has any how to info on this? I would like to replace this, but I am not real sure how to do it. Also, can you get these bushings at an autoparts store, or do I have to go to a dealer?

 

Past experience was they are a dealer only item.

If you can find someone that carries a large assortment of plastic bushings, you may be able to find something that will work.

As far as replacement goes, just look up at your pedal mount and and clutch linkage, it's fairly evident.

Good luck

 

Ok, so I get the plastic bushing from the dealer, take mine out and it was pretty much disintegrated. I have no idea how the thing was still working. Anyhow, no more squeak..
