2017 WRX Clutch pedal chirping or creaking noise (added video)

Hello,

I am long time looker and finally I got my WRX. This is my first post I think :wave:

It's been a week since I picked my 2017 WRX up. It was great day 1, however, since day 2 and now it's under 300 miles, clutch pedal starts making noise.

I think it has a creaking sound while releasing the clutch. I have searched all clutch whistling thread and I have heard once at night but creaking sound would happen after a few times using a clutch or engine is warmed up. If I heard that creaking sound then even I turned off engine still I can hear that creaking sounds when I press and depress clutch.

I already made an appointment to check that sound next week Friday though. But I would like to hear what you guys think. I can't believe that I bought a brand new $30K+ car doing this already.

When I drove a MINI COOPER S manual a few years ago, I had this type an issue and it made me a headache. I hope this is nothing serious....

*btw, I am not sure I can post this since I already posted this to the NASIOC. I am guessing they are 2 different sites so maybe okay

I added the video. So I have a clutch creaking noise + clutch clicking noise under 350 miles. Also I heard slight whistling depressing the clutch first few times.

Actually, regarding a clutch clicking noise, I tested other WRX and STi when I picked my car and they all have a clicking noise and they were pretty noticeable.
