I got the JK back on 5/2 and everything was ok except the squeak.
I had asked the stealer 5 times over the course of 2.5 weeks if it was fixed while they were waiting for the Transmission and ABS module. And the answer was yes each time. I took the service monkey for a ride and asked him again if it was fixed and if so what the squeak is that we are now listen to.
He said he would have to keep it for "awhile" to diagnose it. I said you will not keep the Jeep ;you will call DC and determine what thier Engineers think is causing the problem, then if needed you will order the parts. and I will bring it in on a Saturday (I'm not taking another day off) and you can fix it while I wait. They called me back on 5/3 and said that DC is working the issue and they will keep me posted.
I will keep you posted

I have owned Jeeps since '85, this is really sad.:sad: Why didn't they inspect these when they replaced the transmission

Fixed.........for now
I got my JK back Friday @ noon new clutch/pressure plate/throw out bearing fixed the squeek ..for now.
However after the first stop at Home Depot to get some plants, the Jk WOULDN'T START The ignition wire at the starter was hanging by two threads. I had it towed back to the five star
and told them to fix it NOW. So now I have my Jeep back and out of the hands of the most incompatent dealer I have ever run across After all this I still love my JK

I got this info from another forum I am interested to see if this an actual FIX for this annoying problem ... TSB cross your fingers.
""Well, I got my jeep back finally, and it seems to be fixed. Only time will tell however.
For those of you experiencing this squeak, there is a TSB available now. I dont have the number yet... probably on Tuesday or Wednesday, but the TSB is related to the Slave cylinder.... something about a shim or a sleeve that need to be put over it.
The techs managed to crack the cylinder when installing it the first time, so I now have:
1. New clutch
2. New Trans mounts
3. New Trans
4. New Master/ Slave Cylinder
Hopefully this will be the end of this ordeal... now they just need to fix the top."""

Related to TSB 06-002-07 ?
I wonder if this is related to TSB 06-002-07 dealing with squealing sounds? I had the same issue that was supposedly fixed by a new flywheel, but the chirping is back. I've also noticed A LOT of common complaints about a 'sound' on this site that may be related to this, but described under various different symptoms. Maybe a recall is in order?
