After about 15 minutes of use it has started to squeak like old office
chair. Which does nothing for the immersion factor.
Too bad cause I got used to the pedals right away, I had read so many bad
reports about them I thought they would be a problem.
Has anyone contacted Logitech about this? Anyone have a fix?

I would suggest taking it back and grabbing another until you get one that
doesn't squeak.
I've been lucky enough to have mine for a couple months now with no squeaks
what so ever.

I'd get the MSFF, but I rather have USB (hot swap between flight sims and
racing sims). The GFFF looks good, but the local stores don't carry it, I
won't mail order because the high cost of shipping precludes any exchange
once you buy.

I put a little grease on the bushing, and now no squeak.
It's very easy to make...only 3 bushing to grease.
Sure, the best is the BB conversion...

It is necessary surely to pay attention to the choice of grease, in my case
