Try oil on the spring not the carpet and try a spot of grease i did this in my nova worked a treat. Also put grease on the other end of the cable on the gear box Lee

Is the spring inside the car then? then as mine does this all the time aswell. I had the cable replaced a while ago and that cured it for about 3 days then it came straight back LOL

mine didnt squeak so much as sound like a cat being stepped on, kind of a muted "meow" noise. i thought it was my girlfriend in the passenger seat doing it at first to piss me off til i realised it was my clutch pedal...
