Clutch pedal has the creaks

Removing the assist spring or installing an aftermarket one gives you a more direct feel during the engagement point, or so people have said. I don't really have any experience

I don't really have any experience with that as I never felt it was a problem and left mine on. I'll look through the FSM and let you know what parts to lubricate... maybe you missed a spot.

Did you apply lithium grease to the clevis pin and bushing?

My 2006 G35c was doing the same thing & driving me nuts. I sprayed some lubricant on the moving parts behind the clutch pedal and the creaking vanished.
