clutch making noises
so when i depress my clutch it makes this squeaking noise. i found out that it has a bad clutch cut switch and there was a TSB for it. i was wondering how i can replace the switch and where it is located? thanks!

could be the throwout or pilot bearing, they are both prone to failure in the 8. the throwout is quite cheaply constructed for the OEM application, you can get a 100% steel constructed koyo replacement aftermarket.
after re-reading i assume you mean in the pedal itself squeaks. the switch should be located on the pedal assembly inside the cabin, i would try some lithium white grease on the pivot and switch first, attempting to not get any grease inside the electrical switches.
clutch pedal pivots take a fair amount of abuse and eventually dry out causing squeaks, i saw it on just about every make of car in my 20+ years of automotive repair.
