Default Clutch sound WTF?

Right as I push in the clutch on my 03 touring it makes a chirp sound that sounds exactly like your horn if you were to push it in for the shortest time possible. Like a horn blip if you will. Have any of you ever had this?

I bought the car about a week and a half ago and it started happening about 3 days ago. The dealership did put a new clutch in just before I bought it. Sorry if this is a repost, or noobitis I looked around and didnt find anything.

take it back to the dealer where you bought the Z and let them re-adjust the clutch. You should not have to pay for it.

Does it sound like this... http://s10.photobucket.com/albums/a1...0ZVideo001.flv

If it has that sound you are going to need to replace your master cylinder and slave. If you still have warranty on your car the work should be free.

Nice vid dude thanks! Its more of a note. Like it has a tone. THAT sounds more mechanical mines more musical if that makes any sense. I haven't noticed it when the car is not running. Ill check that out as soon as its back from the body shop. <nothing serious by the way.
