Default clutch squeel?

This just started today. When I push the clutch in Ill get a squeel, and when i let it out i get the same squeel. The clutch doesnt slip or make any noise while its engaged. Everything seems fine except for the noise.

Mine did it for about a week last winter before the bearing just fell apart inside there. I still had half my clutch left but you might as well upgrade the clutch while you have it opened up.

throw out bearing its a cheap part. about a 2 hour job depending on your skill level. youll need to seperate tranny from motor of coarse but dont need to drop it... just move it back and swap it out while the trans is sittng on jack. i would even leave to tc bolted to trans
