All,

I've got a 2K Max SE, 5spd (54K miles) with what appears to be a noisy
clutch cable or mechanism when depressing the clutch.  I had a friend
peek into the engine compartment while I repeatedly operated the clutch.
 The noise seems to originate from outside the transmission and from
what is visible, a cable with a rubber boot over it, under the
intake/airbox tubing.  It is kind of metallic squeak/groan noise.  I can
shift fine with no resistance or binding and there doesn't appear to be
any other associated problems, just noisy.

This is my first Maxima.  I consider myself reasonably handy with tools
and have done complete clutch/brake/struts/CV axle/water pump/timing
belt work on a previous vehicle ('89 Jetta).

Has anyone with a manual Maxima had this problem?  If so, what was the
fix.  NissTech, your thoughts?

TIA
