Most likely the bearing seat is a little tight. I’m not really sure what you can do about that. ---

If it doesn’t effect the play then you have nothing to worry about. ---

Yes, good as new. A tight bearing seat squeaks when you take the yoyo apart. ---

Yup you’re fine. Nothing to worry about. Also there’s this made from a couple years ago. They do recommend avoiding taking it apart, just for tuning purposes. This is good to watch as a Yeti owner. [www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ID1i\_gica0](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ID1i_gica0) ---

My metals squeak more than my yeti. And surprisingly my yeti plays smoother since I’ve opened it up about 4 times now.
