It's a brand new reel, with new aftermarket Yumega knobs, which have oiled bearings.  When I reel I hear a faint squeak.  I put a few drops of oil on the line guide, rail, spool lip, and knobs, but the noise persists.  I was trying to isolate the noise but cannot tell where it's coming from.  I did NOT remove the spool control knob, or the handle, or the centrifugal brake assembly, hoping to avoid breaking down this new reel.  Do you suggest I do a strip down of this reel to add lube / oil?  Any ideas?
