Clutch noise when driving around the city help...

Hey guys, hoping you guys can help me out with a weird clutch issue that just started a week ago. My clutch is OEM and was replaced about 4000 miles ago. Everything was replaced with OEM parts when the clutch went out. I started noticing the clutch pedal having a different feel after driving in stop and go traffic for 15 min or so. I can also hear the faintest sound from the pedal assembly that almost sounds like a creak or owl sound. Its really really faint and can only be heard if youre in the drivers seat and it happens around the engagement point. Only happens when the car is running so it leads me to believe its the throw out bearing. Could this be something in the clutch line? I have it at a shop now and ,of course, they can't recreate the problem so I'm going to have them bleed the line and see if the master/slave cylinders are ok. Just wondering if anyone else has had these symptoms and hopefully my clutch was installed properly.

Nothing helpful from my side, but if I were in your shoes I would go the same path, to first bleed the clutch slave again.

PS: does the shop have the OEM VAG bleeder tool? I'm asking because that one bleeds at a pressure of 2.4bar and if there was air in the hard lines, this one for sure gets the air out. For the clutch slave only 100ml of fluid need to be cycled.

Thanks for the advice! Ill see what type of bleeder they have tomorrow. I'm really hoping thats the cause but with my luck itll be the Throw out bearing.
